About Us - The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank

We’re glad you’re here.

The Food Bank family includes tens of staff, hundreds of partners, thousands of donors, and well over 100,000 guests. And we hope it includes you. Together, we deliver more than food.

It means a lot, you know, to bring out all this free food to this community … It's kind of hard to get all the groceries that you need. It's really inspiring and it’s nice to see that people care.

— Anthony, guest
