Our mission

Ballard Food Bank’s mission is to bring food and hope to our neighbors...because there can be enough for everyone.

To achieve this mission, we provide access to nutritious food through our food bank, home delivery, and Weekend Food for Kids program. We also host the Community Resource Hub, where partner organizations offer a range of services like housing, medical care, and veterans’ benefits – all under one roof. Our financial assistance program helps prevent homelessness through eviction prevention. Clients also have access to utility assistance, identification vouchers, and our mail program.

Through this combination of services, we help our most vulnerable neighbors get on a path to self-sufficiency.
