Why should I support FIND Food Bank?
FIND Food Bank is the largest hunger-relief organization in the Desert and the primary source of food assistance for those who find themselves in need — the help can be for a child, a homebound senior, a working-class family, or someone staying in a homeless shelter. When you support FIND, you are offering your help to all those we serve.
Remember — Hunger does not discriminate.
