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.
A donation of $1 will provide up to 8 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.

This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the Food Bank of Northern Indiana and our fight against hunger. This landmark year will serve as the launching pad for an aggressive attack on this public health issue that is unmatched to this point. You will see a Mayors Taskforce in full operation to bring city resources to the fight. You will witness organized teams of volunteers from different disciplines, taking to the streets to educate and procure healthier foods. Hospitals and business have pledged true collaborations, while schools and universities will work together to harness the energy of young people. 2013 will be the year of action for the Food Bank. And, with your help all actions will lead to a healthier and stronger community. Milt Lee, executive director
