Dare to Care Food Bank

Mission

Founded in 1971, Dare to Care Food Bank's mission is to work together to provide pathways to end hunger in our community. We fulfill this mission by partnering with local agencies, such as food pantries, shelters and emergency kitchens to distribute food to our community. Last year, Dare to Care provided 22.7 million meals to children, adults, and seniors. Dare to Care Food Bank serves 13 counties in Kentuckiana, including Jefferson, Shelby, Bullitt, Oldham, Spencer, Carroll, Trimble, and Henry Counties in Kentucky, and Floyd, Clark, Harrison, Washington, and Crawford Counties in Indiana. Our warehouse is equipped to store and inventory food at the highest commercial food safety standards. Our Community Kitchen houses Dare to Care's production and innovation kitchen and a demonstration kitchen and classroom space.
