AKRON-CANTON REGIONAL FOODBANK

The Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank was formed in 1982 by a group of community leaders who made a commitment to provide emergency food to our neighbors in need. Today, the Foodbank provides food and other essential items to member hunger-relief programs in eight Northeast Ohio counties: Carroll, Holmes, Medina, Portage, Stark, Summit, Tuscarawas and Wayne. These member programs operate more than 600 food pantries, hot meal sites, shelters and other hunger-relief programs in the neighborhoods and communities where people need food... The number of families and individuals who live in hunger in the United States is on the rise. Many come from our most vulnerable populations - children and seniors. You can help the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank as we Feed People and Fight Hunger by providing food and other essential products to food pantries, hot meal sites, shelters and other hunger-relief programs.
