Mission Statement
Our mission is to serve as the primary resource for fighting hunger in NW Louisiana.
About This Cause
About the Food Bank The Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana is the largest distributor of donated food and hunger relief organization in the region since 1997. Last year, through the collaboration of 150 collaborating non-profit food providing organizations, we distributed 15 million pounds of food with a value of $18 million within our service area of Caddo, Bossier, DeSoto, Red River, Webster, Claiborne and Bienville Parishes. We provide food through several different programs: Food Distribution Program, Senior Box Program, Back Pack Program, Mobile Food Pantry, Kids Cafe After School Meal and Summer Feeding Program. Providing more service than almost any other non-profit organization in Northwest Louisiana, we distribute food to 75,000 clients each year. Each client receives food approximately 8 times per year from the Food Bank free of charge. The Food Bank provides these services and products to all eligible individuals, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, gender, age, physical and or mental ability. We ensure that our partners comply with all applicable State, Federal and local legal requirements through inspection and contractual agreement. Each distributing collaborating partner organization uses client tracking software to prevent duplication of service and is monitored to avoid program misuse.
