About us
Established in 1985, Alameda County Community Food Bank is a fast-growing, dynamic organization at the forefront of hunger‐relief efforts in the Bay Area. As one of the most efficient, direct-impact organizations in the country, few nonprofits are as well-respected – or make such an impact on the community – than us. The Food Bank ranks among the top 2% of nonprofits nationwide by Charity Navigator and was recently voted “Best Charity in the East Bay” by East Bay Express. The Food Bank serves 116,000 people each month – primarily children and seniors – and distributes enough food for 28 million meals through our innovative programming and our extensive network of 267 food pantries, soup kitchens and other community partner organizations. We’re forward thinkers who encourage innovation in our work. We change lives and we’re having fun doing it! For more information, please visit accfb.org.

Tomato season is almost over but we're still appreciating these beauties from the summer harvest while we can! A big shoutout and thank you to Oracle for their commitment and ongoing support in our work of distributing farm fresh produce to neighbors across Alameda County.

The Muslim Community Center - East Bay is a Food Bank partner rooted in faith with a profound commitment to aiding their neighbors in need. "A huge part of our faith is giving back to the community,” said Aminah Abdullah, an MCC staff person. The Food Bank’s partnership with MCC has included roughly $80K in grants to help them strengthen their operations. This funding has facilitated the purchase of commercial refrigerators, freezers, storage racks, and a sprinter van, enhancing MCC's capacity to serve the community.

Thursday marked #2 of my #6 volunteer commitments with Alameda County Community Food Bank (ACCFB), and I'm thrilled to share that ACCFB will serve 18,281 meals with the help of volunteers! Giving back on this #GivingThursday fills me with immense gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to ending hunger. I look forward to meeting new people next month as we work together to make a difference!

This week, our entire Shannon Leigh team volunteered at the Alameda County Community Food Bank, sorting fresh produce. With an average of 292 meals per volunteer, we were able to sort the equivalent of 2,920 meals. Food is a basic human right, but 1 in 4 residents in our community is experiencing or at risk of hunger. The ACCFB works towards a stronger, more nourished Alameda County, where no one worries where their next meal will come from. We are always grateful for the chance to support our community together, and we had a blast! #ACCFB
