The Mid-Michigan Food Bank helps prevent hunger in our community by distributing salvaged food products, including produce and fresh foods at low or no cost, to area non-profit agencies serving the hungry and the homeless.
In 2007, nearly 50,000 people received 4.4 million pounds of packaged food and 1.3 million pounds of fresh produce from the Mid-Michigan Food Bank.
"Obtaining food donations while they are still usable requires an efficient system that operates within an established network. Even minor delays or interruptions in the flow of food can render them unusable.
Corporate manufacturers and retailers are not able to work with the hundreds of local pantries. The MMFB is set up to process large food donations."
Vince Villegas, MMFB Board member
