FEEDING AMERICA RIVERSIDE AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES
Mission Statement
Feeding America Riverside | San Bernardino's (FARSB) mission is to alleviate hunger in the Inland Empire. We envision a community where everyone has access to an adequate and nutritious food supply. With these purposes in mind, 98 percent of every donation goes directly to programs and services, and each dollar donated enables the distribution of up to 5 meals. What started as a modest food bank in April 1980 as Survive Food Bank, distributing about 10,000 pounds of food per month and partnering with about 20 local nonprofit agencies. Today, FARSB distributes over 2.7 million pounds of food per month and partners with over 250 local nonprofit organizations.
