As a hunger relief organization, the Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana is the largest distributor of donated foods in the area.

We are the only organization in northwest Louisiana that provides this basic need. We solicit, store and distribute food and other essential items to low-income children, families and senior citizens. We distribute food through various programs. The largest is our food distribution program that provides food through our partnerships with over 100 community and faith-based non-profit organizations. Last year we distributed 5,976,602 pounds of food.
