Dare to Care
Mission: Dare to Care Food Bank leads our community to feed the hungry and conquer the cycle of need. We fulfill this mission through innovative programs, efficient operations and by partnering with local food pantries, shelters and kitchens to get food to people in need. Food banks help connect the dots between building sustainable food systems and addressing climate change. By recovering wholesome food from partners throughout the supply chain and redistributing it to communities facing hunger, food banks prevent that food from sitting in landfills and emitting Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG).
