Description:
The Wiregrass Area United Way Food Bank is a non-profit hunger relief charity that solicits and collects surplus food. The Food Bank stores and distributes this food to agencies primarily feeding the needy in a six-county service area that includes Houston, Henry, Dale, Geneva, Coffee, and Barbour counties, as well as parts of northwest Florida and southwest Georgia. We are an independent non-profit, with paid staff, volunteers, and a board of directors. Operating from a 22,000 square foot warehouse with refrigerated storage, and networked through Feeding America, the Food Bank can access food and other assorted grocery products, and operate at a minimal cost. As a result, member non-profit agencies that utilize the Food Bank are able to conduct their food programs in a cost effective manner. No donated food is ever sold by the Food Bank or by any member agency. Food recipients incur no cost for food assistance. A shared maintenance fee (SMF) assessed to affiliate agencies helps to support the Wiregrass Area United Way Food Bank. Additional financial support is generously donated from churches, civic clubs, businesses and concerned citizens.
