Who We Are
As Utah’s only member of Feeding America’s nationwide network of more than 200 food banks, we are proud to be a part of the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief organization.
What We Do
Utah Food Bank’s newest program, Mobile School Pantry, complements both school meal programs and our other childhood hunger programs. It provides a cost-effective food distribution point for children and their families at the end of the school day in a safe and trusted environment—the school playground. Each month during the school year, our truck arrives on the school property where Utah Food Bank staff and volunteers assist students and their parents as they sign in and receive food. The amount of food distributed varies depending on the availability of donated and purchased foods. We attempt to provide as many healthy items as possible. Mobile School Pantry deliveries are only available to the students of that school and their families and are completely free to the schools and their families in need. We are looking for volunteers willing to come to our schools to help bag and hand out to students as they leave for the day.
