Arkansas Foodbank Little Rock, AR 72209 501.565.8121	Details: In 1984, hunger advocates in central Arkansas opened the Arkansas Foodbank in a storefront because local food pantries didnâ€™t have the storage space to accept truckloads of food donations. Using economies of scale, the Foodbank staff soon began acquiring and distributing the donated food more cost-effectively, splitting the loads into smaller amounts that fit the pantriesâ€™ immediate needs. Since that first warehouse opened, the goal has been to distribute larger and larger quantities of food. Today, weâ€™re the largest source of non-government donated food in Arkansas, distributing upwards of 16 million pounds annually.
