St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance

Phoenix, Arizona

Cause Description:
St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance, the world's first food bank, is a non-sectarian, nonprofit organization that alleviates hunger by efficiently gathering and distributing food to sites that serve the hungry. Serving 13 of Arizona's 15 counties, the organization is committed to volunteerism, building community relationships and improving the quality of life for Arizonans in need. Senior citizens and families with children comprise the majority of the clients served by the Food Bank. By partnering with 534 Arizona agencies, the Food Bank is able to distribute food to 700 sites. The community can support the Food Bank through donations of time, money or food. Contributions are used efficiently and wisely: every dollar donated provides enough for seven meals. Combining donated financial support and the value of donated food, 96 cents of every dollar goes directly to program support.
