How is the food used: Feeding America Tampa Bay is partnered with over 600 charities and churches that distribute this food to the hungry in West Central Florida through their pantry and soup kitchen programs.  Through this network of partner agencies, the food bank dispenses the equivalent of over 250,000 meals for the hungry each week.  Since it began in 1982, the food bank has distributed over 150 million pounds of food.

Who are the people they help?  The working poor who struggle to get by, the grandparents who find themselves fulfilling the role of parents once again, the disabled no longer able to work, and those simply finding the road back from hard times.
Every 1 percent increase in unemployment in Florida equates to an additional 2.5 million pounds of food needed.  The Food Bank distributed almost 17 million pounds of food last year, but it’s an amount that must be doubled in order to fulfill the ever growing need.  Please help.
