The Utah Food Bank

The Utah Food Bank's mission is to meet immediate, basic needs of people in our community who don't know where else to turn. They not only provide food collection and distribution in our community, they also provide needed services for seniors, including home repair and security, yard care, and food assistance.

Every experience I have had volunteering for the Utah Food Bank has been incredibly positive. The resources available to those in our community who need food and for various reasons are unable to access it themselves are astounding. I encourage everyone who has ever given a dollar to a homeless man, woman or child on the streets of Salt Lake City to volunteer just one hour at 3150 South 900 West. See for yourself what can happen when we support food banks rather than pan-handlers!
