Food for Lane County (FFLC) is a nonprofit food bank dedicated to reducing hunger by engaging our community to create access to food. We accomplish this by soliciting, collecting, rescuing, growing, preparing and packaging food for distribution to a network of social service agencies and programs, and through public awareness, education and community advocacy.

Food for Lane County administers innovative programs that respond to the immediate crisis of hunger and help individuals and families address chronic food insecurity through self-sufficiency and education. We distributed 8.3 million pounds of food through our 157 partner agencies from July 2018 through June 2019. The largest program, the emergency food box program, provided 214,276 boxes in Lane County.
