Here we go!

We have launched our Community 555 Campaign which is the community fundraising portion of Thrive Together: A Capital Campaign to Build a New Edmonds Food Bank.

$5.55/day for 5 years = $10,000 gift towards our new home.

We are asking for 555 donors to help us achieve this $5M goal.

“I got a peach pie from the food bank last week and was able to have something to share when my friends came over to play cards. It gave me a feeling of normalcy.”
— Edmonds Food Bank Customer

It’s often the small things we hear about most, fresh produce for kids, dairy in the fridge, period products. And sometimes, it’s a peach pie that makes a moment feel normal again.

Because of your support, these moments happen every day.

We’re just past GiveBIG and are 79% of the way to our $30,000 goal!

If you believe in this work, will you help us get there?

Today is GiveBIG! Help us reach our $30,000 goal for this statewide day of supporting non-profits ❤️

In April we had weeks of providing groceries for nearly 1600 households. As the need grows, we continue to stand strong in our mission to serve every individual that comes to us with dignity and care.

We can't do this without you!

Edmonds Food Bank was founded in 1981 by Peggy Kennedy and Gretchen Dixon as part of the United Methodist Church. Initially run from a closet space, EFB served 20 people each week in its first years. More than forty years later, EFB has grown into the space we use

Here are some snapshots of the food bank this spring.

GiveBIG is Tuesday May 5th. If you believe in our work, consider making a donation to our spring fundraiser. Early giving is open now and we hope to raise $30,000 for current operations.

The need in Edmonds and South Snohomish County is rising, last month we saw a record of 1,600 households visiting the food bank within a week.

Thanks for supporting this work, we could not do this without you!

Help us spread the word!

This is our biggest food drive of the year! It helps us get through the summer months as we support more families who may not be receiving school meal support.

All you have to do is leave a bag of food by your mail box on Saturday morning May 9th. Our AMAZING mail carriers and your local food bank handle the rest.

Bags should be arriving in your mailboxes in May, but any bag will do!
