Our partners are vital to our mission of solving hunger in northern Nevada and the surrounding areas.
Our Partner Agencies are the boots on the ground in the fight against hunger. The Food Bank distributes more than 17 million meals through this amazing network and we couldn’t do it without you! Thank you for being our partners each and every day to make sure that the families who need our help have the peace of mind knowing they will have the food that they need.

The Food Bank of Northern Nevada invites all food pantry partners to a powerful listening session, where your voice will help shape the future of our support efforts.

Your insights are crucial in driving change and amplifying our collective impact on the community.

Happy Holidays! The Food Bank of Northern Nevada will be closed the week of December 23 through December 27 to allow our team time to celebrate the season and rest and recharge for the new year.
