Who We Are

We’re on a mission to solve hunger in Northeast Florida.

We Feed Northeast Florida

Feeding Northeast Florida is the largest, most efficient food bank serving Baker, Bradford, Clay, Duval, Flagler, Nassau, Putnam & St. Johns Counties. We work with retail partners, manufacturers, and farms to rescue high-quality food for those in need. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we are able to purchase additional food resources to meet the needs of Northeast Florida families and individuals who struggle to put food on the table. The support of our partners and individuals like you enables our work to serve over 85,000 of our neighbors in need every day.

But we need your help.

Our team, alongside more than 325 nonprofit partner agencies and programs, like City Rescue Mission, The Sulzbacher Center and The Salvation Army, works tirelessly to not only feed the line but shorten the line. It is only through the generosity of our community that we can continue our work to solve hunger.
