Blue Ridge Area Food Bank
Why We Exist
Our MISSION is to provide nourishing food to our neighbors in need through vibrant community partnerships and passionate public support.
Our VISION is that everyone has enough to eat.
What We Do
We serve 25 counties and 8 cities on either side of the Blue Ridge through distribution centers in Charlottesville, Lynchburg, Winchester and our headquarters in Verona. We provide nutritious food to 103,500 people each month through Community Food Distribution partners (205 food pantries, soup kitchens), five Child Nutrition Programs, and two Senior Nutrition Programs, as well as 174 sites where we support nutrition education.
We are members of Feeding America, a national organization supporting more than 200 food banks across the country, and the largest domestic hunger relief agency in the U.S. We are also members of the Federation of Virginia Food Banks, an association of the seven food banks in Virginia.
Who We Serve
