ABOUT US
Our mission is anchored in Matthew 25:35: “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” This verse shapes our identity and reminds us of our calling to be the hands and feet of Christ.
We are committed to ending hunger and food insecurity across Florida, believing that compassion and community working together can transform lives.
Through the generosity of food and financial donors, the dedication of volunteers, and the support of a caring community, Florida Food Bank will provide over one million meals each year to families in need.
We believe that everyone deserves access to nutritious food and no one should have to worry about where their next meal will come from. With the help of our partners and supporters, we are working towards a hunger-free Florida.
Hunger touches every county and ZIP code across the United States — and Central Florida is no exception. It affects men, women, and children of all races, ethnicities, and economic backgrounds. The root causes vary, from the lack of affordable housing and limited educational opportunities to families working hard in low-wage jobs that simply don’t cover basic needs.
The latest report shows:
-
1 in 7 individuals in Central Florida are facing hunger.
-
1 in 6 children live in households that are food insecure.
