Did you know we are entirely run by volunteers?
No one takes home a paycheck.
We've got more than 250 volunteers ready to step in and help us continue to serve our community.

Our volunteers are incredible, and allow us to use monetary donations to use for those in need.

One of our goals at the Meridian Food Bank is to ensure no child ever goes hungry. That's why we partner with Idaho's largest school district West Ada School District, to provide weekend food bags to students in need.

During the 2024-2025 school year, we packed and delivered 27,395 bags, for an average of about 780 students per week.

Your donation during will help make sure we can continue to do that: https://www.idahogives.org/organizations/meridian-food-bank.
