Annual Report 2022-23

In 2023, the need for food assistance remained substantial. People who lost jobs, have low incomes, or remain underemployed need continued support to recover unpaid bills and lost savings. Since 2019, FIND Food Bank has doubled the number of annual meals provided and will continue to expand our capacity to serve, ensure equitable food distribution, and increase access to healthy food for all, as the need for our assistance remains high.

Marily Santos

“The money that we save is mostly for bills since rent is really expensive right now. My husband is the only one working. If I work we will need a babysitter for all four kids so it’s really expensive. FIND helps us with our bills, and sometimes we are able to buy extra food.”

Marily S., Indio Resident

23% or 28,865 are Seniors

“Even in this rich country, there are people hungry. There are seniors who are hungry. There are a lot of kids going hungry. I will always appreciate what these people do at FIND because it’s like I always say, nobody should go hungry.”

Juan R., Coachella Resident

41% or 51,472 are Adults

“I took an early retirement to go back to school to get my degree. My church used to help me, but they can’t really. It’s better to just know FIND’s calendar and go. What I don’t use, I give to my neighbors and spread it around. It’s important to contribute to the community.”
