Established in 1984, FOOD for Lane County (FFLC) is a private, nonprofit food bank. Our mission is to reduce hunger by engaging our community to create access to food. We accomplish this by soliciting, collecting, growing, rescuing, preparing, and packaging food for distribution through our network of social service agencies and programs. We also work on public awareness, education and community advocacy to encourage long-term community-based solutions to hunger.
As the second largest food bank in Oregon, we are a member of both the Oregon Food Bank network and Feeding America, the national food bank collaborative. We serve the emergency food needs for a population base of 374,000 people living in both urban and rural Lane County
