Mission Statement
Feeding South Florida (Formerly Daily Bread Food Bank), a not-for-profit organization, empowers other South Florida Not-for-profit organizations to assist people in need and improve their lives. We do this by providing food and other grocery products; and by educating and engaging our community to fight hunger and poverty.
We are the South Florida affiliate of Feeding America , a member of the Florida Association of Food Banks and the largest food bank in the State of Florida.
Description
Imagine going hungry, right here, in the wealthiest country in the world. It hardly seems possible but it's true. The reasons are many. Job losses. Stagnant or declining wages. Escalating costs and high medical expenses. The fact is, 49 million Americans are at risk of hunger. That's one in six Americans, and many of them are children and elderly.
Here's another fact that might shock you, 20% of all food produced in the United States goes to waste.
And that's where Feeding South Florida comes in.
Join our team today and help us fight hunger and feed hope.
