Fairbanks Community Food Bank Service

Mission

Founded in 1982, the Fairbanks Community Food Bank collects and redistributes donated food to individuals and agencies. Our primary purpose is to provide food for hungry people and to distribute surplus food that would ordinarily be discarded. Food donations are received from the local community and about 100 commercial vendors. Food is distributed through many programs including Food Boxes, Bone Builders, Agency Shopping and FOOD IS MEDICINE.

Vision

We do not want anyone in Interior Alaska to go to bed hungry

Goals

1.We are a COMMUNITY food bank. We do not rely on government funds but we do rely on local support, both in donated food, growing of fresh food and and also donated dollars. We receive free food and give it away free and our COMMUNITY has supported us for 42 years. Our focus is on individual donations and local fundraising.
2.We strive to meet all standards for excellence, best business practices, and in our human resources development. Our goal is to be the most responsive local non-profit organization who is trusted by our community in all ways. Two-thirds of our daily volunteers are students and seniors and accessibility to all that we do is important. We work hard at teaching youngsters about SHARING and CARING.
3.We have had the same mission statement for 42 years. There is no mission-drift. We STILL collect local surplus food and give it to local people who need food assistance. Feeding local people IS our core mission AND keeping good useable food out of the local landfill is a priority concern for us.
