Our Mission
The Wiregrass Area Food Bank feeds the needy of Southeast Alabama through member agencies by: • Soliciting, procuring, and distributing excess food and grocery products • Developing and monitoring agency networks • Cultivating community awareness and participation
Who We Are
The Wiregrass Area Food Bank is a non-profit hunger relief charity that solicits and collects surplus food. The Food Bank stores and distributes this food to agencies primarily feeding the needy in a six-county service area that includes Houston, Henry, Dale, Geneva, Coffee, and Barbour counties.
We are an independent non-profit, with paid staff, volunteers, and a board of directors. Operating from a 22,000 square foot warehouse with refrigerated storage, and networked through Feeding America, the Food Bank can access food and other assorted grocery products, and operate at a minimal cost. As a result, member non-profit agencies that utilize the Food Bank are able to conduct their food programs in a cost effective manner. No donated food is ever sold by the Food Bank or by any member agency. Food recipients incur no cost for food assistance.
A shared maintenance contribution assessed to affiliate agencies helps to support the Wiregrass Area Food Bank. Additional financial support is generously donated from churches, civic clubs, businesses and concerned citizens.
