Mission
Founded in 1986, the Foodbank of the Virginia Peninsula distributes food effectively through collaborative efforts that minimize hunger, promote nutrition and self-reliance through education. The foodbank's distribution program serves as a regional clearinghouse for donated and purchased food as well as related items. In turn, these items are distributed to qualified nonprofit organizations providing food to the less fortunate on the Peninsula. During the 2007-2008 fiscal year, the Foodbank distributed 9,468,890 pounds of food throughout its nine-jurisdiction service area on the Virginia Peninsula. This service area encompasses the cities of Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson and Williamsburg and the counties of Gloucester, James City, Mathews, Surry and York.
