Food Bank of Northern Indiana

Since 1993, the Food Bank of Northern Indiana has been feeding the hungry in the six counties it serves.

The Food Bank of Northern Indiana works in partnership with the community to feed the hungry, increase awareness of the effects of hunger, and lead programs designed to alleviate hunger.  The Food Bank of Northern Indiana serves Elkhart, Kosciusko, LaPorte, Marshall, Starke and St. Joseph Counties and is a member of Feeding America, Feeding Indiana's Hungry (FIsH) and United Way.

Through our 185 member agencies, the Food Bank of Northern Indiana served one-quarter million household in northern Indiana in 2010.  We distributed a record 5 million pounds of food - this distribution was up 125% from 2009.  Our member agency meal providers served 1,272,277 meals during the past year in shelters, soup kitchens and other meal sites.  A donation of $1 will provide up to seven meals for those adults, seniors and children with food insecurity issues in northern Indiana.

Hunger is the silent epidemic.  Hunger is a community health issue.  No one should have to decide between food, heating their home or purchasing medicine.  The need is great.  Find out how you can help your Neighbors in Need.
