Virginia Peninsula Foodbank

Mission

Founded in 1986, the Virginia Peninsula Foodbank distributes food effectively through collaborative efforts that minimize hunger, promote nutrition and encourage self-reliance through education. The Foodbank is the leading non-profit hunger-relief organization on the Virginia Peninsula which receives and distributes purchased and donated food. In turn, these items are distributed to qualified nonprofit organizations providing food to the less fortunate across the Greater Peninsula. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, the Foodbank distributed almost 10.9 million pounds of food (equal to almost 9.1 million meals) throughout its service area which encompasses the cities of Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson and Williamsburg and the counties of Gloucester, James City, Mathews, Surry, and York.

Vision

Our vision is to contribute positively to the health and well-being of our neighbors while also striving to address the root causes of food insecurity through equitable practices. We aim to inspire hope by leading the effort for a hunger-free and properly nourished community.

Goals

1.To ensure that our community has access to first-quality fruits and vegetables and to partner with local health systems to support healthy eating in populations with chronic medical conditions.
2.To promote and achieve equity in our food distribution programs, improving access to food assistance for populations previously underserved.
3.To empower those facing hunger to gain access to economic mobility pathways by promoting financial well-being and offering education that will lead to self-sufficiency.
