Welcome to North State Food Bank

"By pooling our resources in the north state region, proper organization, and the generosity of north state donors, we can make sure nobody goes hungry on our watch."
- Tom Tenorio, Executive Director Community Action Agency

Our "food bank" is one of the most fundamental operations that Community Action Agency provides. We collect and distribute food from The Emergency Food Asistance Program, new government sponsored programs and initiatives, and community partnerships with food corporations, local vendors, and food drives. This division of our agency also includes senior nutrition programs both in-home and at regional dining sites that serve multiple counties in the north state area. Need help with transportation to and from dining sites? We do that too. We even provide help with Cal-Fresh (formerly food stamps).
