The WF Area Food Bank, founded in 1982 was grown out of a need to centralize food procurement and distribution for individuals in need. 41 years later, the Food Bank serves a 12 county area, slightly larger than the state of Massachusetts, which covers 10,555 square miles! Over the 2022 fiscal year, we distributed 4.5 million pounds of food and currently serve over 25,000 individuals monthly. This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
