Give food, nourish health

It’s a simple act, but it has a profound impact. When people have access to enough nutritious food to eat, more doors open and lives improve. At the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, our mission is to improve food security through equitable access to good nutrition and the resources that support health and well-being.

About Us

The food we need is right here. It helps so much. And it is better than going hungry.
