What is a food bank?

Unlike a food pantry, a food bank has the space and capacity to source, warehouse and move millions of pounds of food across a significantly larger area than a smaller neighborhood-based pantry or kitchen.

GLFB is also a Feeding America partner food bank, which makes us a member of a network of food banks, food pantries and meal programs working together across the U.S. to fight food insecurity.


Who is the food bank for?

GLFB and our network of more than 140+ partner organizations helps any individual or family in need of food in Clare, Clinton, Eaton, Gratiot, Ingham, Isabella or Shiawassee Counties, Michigan.


Why do community organizations partner with the food bank?

Food banks help communities address food insecurity at scale by providing food to a network of partner nonprofits at significantly lower costs — and often at no cost! — than if a food pantry were to purchase items itself. GLFB also offers several programs that directly serve neighbors across our service area.
