The Mobile Food Pantry program deploys mobile pantries to bring healthy, nutritious food deep into underserved neighborhoods that have few if any supermarkets and are instead flooded with discount and convenience food stores. In partnership with local non-profit partners, the Foodbank sets up weekly or monthly distributions for individuals and families who live in the immediate neighborhood.
At each event, we utilize a group of local volunteers to greet food recipients and distribute food. In addition to distributing nutritious food though mobile pantries, we increase food security by offering food preparation demonstrations, nutrition education, CalFresh enrollment assistance and linkages to other food-related resources at selected distributions.
