A food partner is defined as a corporate entity that has given food product that is suitable for our clients. The top food donors last year were Walmart, SaveMart, Raley's Fine Foods, Scolari's Food & Drug Co., US Foodservice, SK Food Group, Peri & Sons, Sam's Club, Safeway and Nutrasystem.
Another important way that partners support the Food Bank of Northern Nevada is through promotions at the point of sale. Whether it's an offer to make a donation with a specific product purchases or the opportunity for consumers to donate when they are at the register, it all helps to support those who need assistance getting food and shows a dedication to making our communities stronger.
