Our Food Bank Network is Here to Help — Find Food and Resources

Find Food

Here are three ways to get groceries.

Call 211

If you are in immediate need of food assistance, please dial 2-1-1 from a phone and speak with someone about services available in your area (2-1-1 is a three-digit dialing code, similar to 4-1-1). Lines are open 24 hours a day. Most but not all areas provide 2-1-1 phone support.

Talk to a Food Bank

Reach out to your local food bank for a list of places you can get food in your area. Find your local food bank here.
