The Bellingham Food Bank’s mission is to reduce hunger in Bellingham by providing wholesome foods to those in need on an emergency or chronic basis and by educating the community on the problem of hunger. We meet this mission by handing out free groceries to any individual or family that lives in Bellingham. We work hard to serve our neighbors with dignity and without judgment.
The Bellingham Food Bank is staffed by four paid staff and more than 140 volunteers. We rely on the local community for support to meet the growing need for our services. In 2008, Bellingham Food Bank experienced tremendous growth. Client visits increased by 30% and the food bank now averages 8,000 visits each month. 35% of food bank clients are children, 16% are senior citizens.
