    About Us

    We are the first food bank in California, founded in 1972, serving Santa Cruz County residents through 100 partner agencies and 60 program sites. Fresh produce, along with dry goods are distributed to low-income families and individuals through indirect and direct services. We serve 65,000 individuals a month. We partner with around 100 local non profits, providing them the food so they do not have to source it themselves.
