What We Do

OUR MISSION – To work within our community to gather and distribute nutritious food to those in need, and to contribute to public awareness of the conditions that lead to food insecurity.

The purpose of our organization is to alleviate food insecurity for North Bay residents allowing each North Bay citizen the opportunity to become self-sufficient. In the words of Jake Englehart, “No one need pass here hungry”.

The North Bay Food Bank has been serving the North Bay community since 1987. Today, we assist approximately 800-1000 people each month – 27 percent of whom are children. The North Bay Food Bank also serves citizens of North Bay and Redbridge.
