Greater Cleveland Food Bank - Hunger & Health VISTA
 
 
 
The Greater Cleveland Food Bank is the largest hunger relief organization in Northeast Ohio. Our mission is to ensure that everyone in our communities has the nutritious food they need every day. We do this through both food distribution and SNAP outreach efforts. The Food Bank operates a community food distribution center, providing food and other critical grocery products to nearly 1,000 local food pantries, hot meal programs, shelters, mobile pantries, programs for the elderly, and other nonprofit agencies. We also prepare nutritious meals in our Food Bank Kitchen and take hundreds of calls each day in our Help Center, where we refer low-income callers to local agencies assist with the application process for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and other assistance programs.
