The West Seattle Food Bank is committed to providing food security and community connections to our neighbors in need. This is provided through our ongoing programs:
Food Distribution- The West Seattle Food Bank offers a shopping style distribution method for our facility based distribution to meet the needs of the diverse population that we serve. In our shopping area families stroll the isles with a shopping cart and choose the foods that meet with their dietary needs and cultural preferences.
Mobile Food Bank Services - Mobile Food Bank sets up an off-site distribution weekly in the lobbies of four locations for the disabled, elderly and others not able to make it to the food bank or we deliver a bag of groceries directly to their homes through our Home Delivery.
Backpack Program - Providing school children at risk of hunger with a "backpack" of food weekly, including six kid-friendly meals, to ensure they have nutritious food for the weekend.
Pet Pantry - Distributing donated pet food and other accessories to families we serve who need help taking care of their furry friends.
Baby & Child Corner - Providing formula, baby food, diapers, car seats, strollers, toys, furniture, clothes & other accessories to parents of infants and toddlers who need a little help through our partner WestSide Baby and other donors.
Community Connections - Helping the families we serve access additional information and services from dozens of partner organizations.
The Bookcase - Providing the children and adults we serve with free, donated books to encourage healthy reading habits.
