Mission Statement

To improve the quality of life for all Rhode Islanders by advancing solutions to the problem of hunger.

About This Cause

We’re here to ensure that no one in Rhode Island goes hungry. The Rhode Island Community Food Bank distributes food to people in need through a statewide network of 158 member agencies. These agencies include food pantries, meal sites, shelters, youth programs and senior centers. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 public health pandemic, the Food Bank has increased food distribution by 45%. The number of people served rose from 53,000 to 68,000 per month. Everyone served through the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, whether children, adults or seniors already struggle with food insecurity. A public health emergency like COVID-19 only adds to the stress and strain on their health and wellness. That’s why it is so critical that we continue to provide food assistance to Rhode Islanders in need.
