ABOUT US
The mission of the Foodbank is to feed hungry people by
obtaining surplus food and distributing it to member
agencies who serve a wide spectrum of individuals and
families. During 2006, the Foodbank of Santa Barbara
County distributed over 5.5 million pounds of food from
two warehouse locations in Santa Barbara and Santa Maria.

Partners: In 2006, over 100,000 people in Santa Barbara County
were served by Foodbank member agencies. The Foodbank distributes
food to over 220 social service programs and agencies, churches
and community groups from Carpinteria to Santa Maria.

Food Donors: The Foodbank depends upon community-minded
individuals, businesses and corporations for support. The
surplus and donated food comes from many sources; over 400
donors contributed food and other commodities during 2006,
in addition to the thousands of pounds of food collected
through local food drives.

Locally, food items such as bread, produce, dairy and deli
items are donated daily by retail stores. Local growers and
packers donate fresh fruit and vegetables. Individuals,
businesses, and community groups, contribute through food
drives.

Throughout the State, food banks share donations and trade
for items they cannot obtain in their area. Surplus food
and other items collected by store chains are transported
to the Foodbank warehouses, sorted by volunteers, and
distributed to member agencies.
