Description
The Food Bank of Central Louisiana was incorporated in October 1989 with the mission of alleviating hunger in Central Louisiana. In May of 1990, the Food Bank officially opened and distributed 2,329 pounds of food to two pantries. Seven months later, these numbers jumped to 193,845 pounds to 31 pantries. The Food Bank became a member of Feeding America, formally known as America's Second Harvest in 1995. The Food Bank has grown over the past 20 years, adding member agencies and programs. In 2009, the Food Bank distributed more than 5.7 million pounds of food to 85 member agencies in Central Louisiana. As the Food Bank of Central Louisiana works, with your help, toward the future, we maintain the faith, and the hope, that one day our work will be unnecessary. That one day, together, we will create a community where no one has to go hungry.
