St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance

Locations/Programs: EMERGENCY FOOD BOXES (EFB)

St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance distributes Emergency Food Boxes, free of charge, to case managers assisting families and individuals facing a crisis. A three-day supply of food, these boxes are designed to meet the immediate needs of a family or individual during a time of crisis until more permanent assistance is found. The majority of those receiving Emergency Food Boxes are senior citizens or low-income families with children.
