Our Programs

The Arlington Food Bank offers essential programs to help those facing hunger in our community. With the support of donors and volunteers, we provide food, run educational workshops, and have special initiatives for children and seniors. Our mission is to ensure everyone in Arlington has access to nutritious meals.

KidSmart

In partnership with the Arlington School District, FREE supplemental meals are available for any student in Arlington School District.

A Simple Gesture

Buy some non-perishable food items when you shop. Place the items in the given bag. On the 2nd Saturday of EVEN months a volunteer will pick it up!

The Mobile Market

Together, with AHS’s “Character Strong Campaign”, we have put our words to action and purchase a refrigerated mobile food pantry to improve services to our community most in need.

Volunteers are needed to join Gardeners Sharing Abundance (GSA) community!! It is a group that meets at our Community Garden, located at Andrews Hay. We need help with watering, planting and weeding.

Last year, our community garden raised over 15,000 pounds of fresh produce and this year, we are aiming for a much higher number, and we can't do it without your help!

For more information, please contact Linda at gardenerssharingabundance@gmail.com or Heinz at hjroye@msn.com

Look at all of this beautiful produce that arrived from our community garden! This is our third harvest delivery of the season, and we are just getting started!

This week's delivery weighed in at an incredible 239 pounds of fresh produce grown right here in our community. This produce is so fresh, it still has dirt on it 😁

Fresh fruits and vegetables are an important part of a healthy diet, and we are so grateful to be able to provide locally grown produce to the families that we serve. Every pound harvested helps make nutritious food more accessible to our neighbors.

A huge thank you to Andrew's Hay and to every single of our GSA volunteers who helps make our community garden possible! Your hard work is making a difference, and we can't wait to see what the rest of this growing season brings!

💙 A few weeks ago, we shared a post showing how empty our warehouse had become and asked for help from our community.

One community member saw that post and decided to take action. They went to the local Safeway and purchased more than 1,000 pounds of food for the Arlington Community Food Bank!

This incredible act of generosity is a reminder that when our community sees a need, people step up. These donations will help ensure that local families have access to nutritious, delicious foods during a time when demand continues to be high.

💙 We couldn't do what we do if it wasn't for all of you. Every donation, every volunteer hour, and every act of kindness helps us to continue serving our neighbors.

To our generous donor: THANK YOU. Your compassion and willingness to help will make a real difference in the lives of countless families.

To our entire community: THANK YOU for continuing to support our mission. Together, we are making sure no one has to face hunger alone.
