Food Bank of Western Massachusetts
Together, we end hunger. Since 1982, the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts has been a community partner to end hunger. We provide healthy and culturally responsive food directly through our Mobile Food Bank and Brown Bag: Food for Elders sites and through the 169+ member food assistance network in Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden, and Hampshire counties. These independent pantries, meal sites, and shelters are on the front lines, providing food and other resources to individuals, families, seniors, children, and people with disabilities, including veterans, so they may lead healthy and meaningful lives. The Food Bank partners on public education and advocacy to eliminate systemic barriers to food security, operating with the belief that everyone has a right to healthy food.
