Providing food and hope for a better tomorrow, stronger community
We know life can be tough. We can help.
One in five people within our community are food insecure and don’t know where their next meal will come from – or the one after that. Many have limited access to fresh foods such as fruits, vegetables and dairy and without reliable transportation, options are limited or unavailable. In our community where comfortable lifestyles appear to be the norm, there are individuals and families who could use a little help. Their stories are diverse, but the need is real. Won’t you help?
How Foothills Food Bank Became a Lifeline for Thousands
For nearly four decades, the Foothills Food Bank & Resource Center has been a steady source of support for neighbors facing food insecurity. What began as a small volunteer-led effort has grown into a vital resource, reaching thousands of individuals and families each year. This video offers a brief look at the food bank’s history-honoring its roots, celebrating its growth, and highlighting the ongoing impact it has on the community.

Got milk? We do now! 🥛
A huge thank you to the incredible volunteers and staff who keep our Grocery Rescue vans moo-ving every day—picking up food and getting it where it's needed most.
That dedication recently earned some very special recognition! St. Mary's Food Bank Fry's Food Stores The Arizona Dairy Council, and D-backs Give Back provided Foothills Food Bank with a gift card to purchase milk for our neighbors.

Some of the best things happen when a community comes together.
A heartfelt thank you Stumblina's Cantina , and musician Darrell Doepke Realtor for hosting an evening filled with great music, delicious food, and generous hearts.
Darrell shared his time and talents during the evening, then split his tips with local nonprofits. It was a fun night that provided meaningful support for organizations serving our community.
We're honored to be one of the beneficiaries and grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up for one another.

6,000 Bowls. One incredible community.
When Living Water Lutheran Church set out to collect 500 boxes of cereal, they didn't just meet the goal—they exceeded it by 176 boxes, collecting an amazing 676 boxes of cereal.
That's enough for approximately 6,000 servings that will help local families start their mornings with a meal.
A heartfelt thank you to Foothills Food Bank Board Member Deb Bash for organizing this incredible drive and to everyone at Living Water Lutheran Church who donated. Your generosity is making a real difference for neighbors throughout our community.
Thank you for showing what community looks like. 💙
