Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

GOD'S PANTRY FOOD BANK IS THE LARGEST FOOD BANK IN KENTUCKY AND INCLUDES ONE-THIRD OF THE STATE GEOGRAPHICALLY AND BY POPULATION WITHIN ITS SERVICE AREA. ITS MISSION IS REDUCING HUNGER BY WORKING TOGETHER TO FEED KENTUCKY COMMUNITIES. ITS VISION IS A NOURISHED LIFE FOR EVERY KENTUCKIAN. TO REACH THE 250,000 FOOD INSECURE KENTUCKIANS WITHIN ITS 50-COUNTY SERVICE AREA, THE FOOD BANK DISTRIBUTES NEARLY 41.8 MILLION POUNDS OF FOOD ANNUALLY THROUGH MORE THAN 500 FOOD PANTRIES AND MEAL PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE GROCERIES OR MEALS AT NO COST TO CLIENTS EXPERIENCING HUNGER. THE FOOD BANK IS A FEEDING AMERICA AFFILIATE. THE FOOD BANK IS NOT A RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION AND DOES NOT GIVE PREFERENCE OR REFUSE SERVICE TO ANY CLIENT OR PARTNER AGENCY BASED ON ETHNICITY, GENDER, RELIGION, OR OTHER DEFINING CHARACTERISTIC.


THE FOOD BANK WORKS WITH NONPROFIT PARTNERS IN EVERY COUNTY WITHIN ITS SERVICE AREA. IN SOME AREAS, THERE ARE STILL NOT ENOUGH FOOD RESOURCES TO MEET THE NEED. IN THOSE CASES, THE FOOD BANK OPERATES THE MOBILE PANTRY PROGRAM, A DIRECT FOOD DELIVERY PROGRAM USED TO SERVE COUNTIES WITH HIGHER-THAN-AVERAGE FOOD INSECURITY AND HEALTH AND INCOME DISPARITIES AND LOWER FOOD DISTRIBUTION RESOURCES. WITH THIS PROGRAM, OUR REFRIGERATED TRUCKS DELIVER A SELECTION OF NUTRIENT-DENSE FOOD DIRECTLY INTO COUNTIES IN NEED. IN FY22 THE MOBILE PANTRY PROGRAM OPERATED IN TWELVE COUNTIES AND PROVIDED A RELIABLE SOURCE OF HEALTHY GROCERIES, INCLUDING MEAT, MILK AND FRESH PRODUCE, TO FAMILIES.


GOD'S PANTRY FOOD BANK AIMS TO REACH ANYONE WHO IS HUNGRY IN THE 50 COUNTIES IT SERVES, BUT SOME POPULATIONS REQUIRE SPECIFIC STRATEGIES TO BE SUCCESSFUL. SENIOR CITIZENS ARE AT HIGHER RISK FOR FOOD INSECURITY DUE TO LIMITED INCOMES AND INCREASED HEALTH CHALLENGES. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE KENTUCKY DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, THE FOOD BANK DIRECTLY PROVIDES FOOD TO AN AVERAGE OF 13,000 SENIOR CITIZENS EACH MONTH THROUGH THE COMMODITY SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES A SELECTION OF HEALTHY BASIC STAPLES FOR SENIORS AT 91 LOCATIONS. ONCE ENROLLED, CLIENTS RECEIVE A SELECTION OF NUTRITIOUS FOODS AT THE SAME SITE, DAY, AND TIME MONTHLY. USDA IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY PROVIDER, EMPLOYER, AND LENDER. HTTPS://GODSPANTRY.ORG/NONDISCRIMINATIONSTATEMENT
