Every year, the Food Bank’s Young Professionals Council takes the reins on the One Big Table After Party, turning our San Francisco warehouse into a late-night celebration that raises support for the Food Bank's work across San Francisco and Marin, complete with a glowing dance floor, delicious bites, and cocktails flowing from the bar. 💃🎉

And the One Big Table energy carries over, too. Some of the local chefs who brought their culinary magic for the main event stick around for the party. You just might find yourself chatting with one of them about what inspired their dish, how they pulled it together or whatever other chef-y secrets you can get them to spill. 👀

Join us Saturday, Oct. 3, at 9:30 p.m. for dancing with DJ Jon Reyes and a night that keeps the celebration going long after dinner is over.

📍900 Pennsylvania Ave., San Francisco
✨Cocktail attire (Bring layers because evenings can be chilly!)
🎟️Early bird tickets are on sale through Aug. 31

Come for the party. Stay because the dance floor got you. 🤩

This week, two full truckloads of emergency supplies left the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank headed for Hawaii, carrying bottled water, emergency food boxes and bins of assorted shelf-stable canned goods to support communities recovering from Hurricane Lala.

We’re proud to stand with our fellow food bank partners and the people of Hawaii as recovery continues. Our support is with the local teams working to make sure families have access to food, water and other essentials in the weeks ahead.

Mahalo to Hawai‘i Foodbank Kaua‘i for the work you’re doing on the ground. We’re with you. 🌺

August is National Make-a-Will Month. And many American adults don't have a will. Writing down your wishes is one of the most caring things you can do — for the people you love, and for the causes you believe in.

At the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank, we believe food is a right, not a privilege. We provide food to neighbors across San Francisco and Marin.

Through the end of August, FreeWill lets you create a legal will online, free, in about 20 minutes. If you choose to include the Food Bank, you'll help make sure our neighbors have food on the table for years to come.

There’s still time to make twice the impact for families facing hunger this back-to-school season.

Thanks to the generosity of Ruth Krishnan, every gift to the Food Bank will be DOUBLED up to $25,000 through Aug. 31.

Cuts to SNAP/CalFresh and reductions in federal food support aren’t just political headlines. Families across San Francisco and Marin are already feeling the impact at the grocery store, just as back-to-school expenses are putting even more pressure on household budgets.

With the month winding down, we need your help to make the most of every remaining matching dollar.

Give today and your gift can go twice as far for children, seniors and families facing hunger.

Eggplant appreciation post!🍆

This week, our team visited our partners at North Marin Community Services and couldn't help but marvel at these magnificent eggplants.

Participants shared all the ways they planned to cook them, from stir-fries to stews. Yum!

We love seeing fresh produce like this headed home with our community. More than 70% of the food the Food Bank distributes to Marin and San Francisco is fresh produce, which means plenty of colorful, nourishing ingredients ready for whatever’s cooking. 💚🍏

Three returning favorites are back at this year’s gala, One Big Table! 🍽️

✨Azalina's Malaysian brings Malaysian street food together with contemporary San Francisco flair. The restaurant is led by Chef Azalina Eusope, a fifth-generation Mamak street food vendor who is a 2024 James Beard Award semifinalist and also received Eater SF’s 2023 “Chef of the Year” award. Azalina’s celebrates heritage through layered, expressive cooking rooted in tradition and California’s seasonal bounty.

✨Burmatown., the Michelin Guide-recognized Marin gem founded by mother-daughter duo Chef Jennifer Fujitani and Chef Jenny Gee, brings bold Burmese flavors, family recipes, and seasonal California ingredients to the table. Together, Jennifer and Jenny have created a warm gathering place grounded in Burmese hospitality and dishes inspired by the flavors Jenny grew up with in Burma.

✨Causwells, a beloved American bistro in San Francisco’s Marina District, has been a neighborhood favorite since 2014. Co-founded by Chef Adam Rosenblum, the restaurant menu pairs Northern California’s produce-driven style with French, Spanish, and Italian influences, alongside an inventive cocktail program led by Elmer Mejicanos.
We’re thrilled to welcome Azalina’s, Burmatown and Causwells back to One Big Table. Come experience what they’re bringing to the table this year!

Back-to-school season is already one of the most expensive times of year. This August, families across San Francisco and Marin are also facing high grocery prices and devastating cuts to SNAP/CalFresh.

More than 44,000 households turn to the Food Bank each week, and right now, your gift can go twice as far.

Thanks to the generosity of Ruth Krishnan, every gift will be DOUBLED, up to our $25,000 goal, through August 31.

Your matched gift can help families bring home fresh, healthy groceries while navigating school supplies, new clothes and the loss of food assistance.

Give by August 31 to double your impact.

A few weeks ago, jalapeños made their way into participants’ groceries to take home. Chili pepper 🌶️

There’s an old wives’ tale that the peppers with little, tan, stitch-like marks are the spiciest ones. Those markings, - called “corking ” - are a natural feature that can appear as jalapeños mature. Some pepper lovers swear they’re a sign of extra heat.

Here’s to the heat-seekers among our participants who found the spiciest jalapeños in the bunch.

As backpacks get packed and classrooms fill up again, too many kids are heading back to school without consistent access to the food they need to learn and thrive.

With SNAP/CalFresh cuts taking effect and grocery costs still high, families are being stretched even thinner. Meanwhile, more than 5,000 people are waiting for Food Bank services.

Right now, your monthly gift can go twice as far. Join The Giving Table, and Dyann Tresenfeld and Ed Waldrup will match your monthly support for the next 365 days.

Double your impact for a full year by starting or increasing your monthly gift today.
