We're Here For You
If you need food, we can help.
About our program
We are a fixed address hamper program that can serve you once every 30 days. We give about 1-3 days worth of food. Items given are dependent on donations received and may vary each visit.
Client Service Protocols
Clients attending the North Bay Food Bank are asked to line up outside (please dress for the weather) as we will bring in as clients as space allows. Clients (and visitors) to the Food Bank are encouraged to wash their hands and use hand sanitizer. Please ensure you have the proper documentation prior to your visit, and that you are attending on your eligible visit date or later (see below for policy).
