The California Association of Food Banks believes that food is more than just nourishment. Food is medicine, it is fuel for learning, it is a teacher of cultures, a convener of communities, and most of all, food is a fundamental right. And right now, 8 million Californians don't know where their next meal will come from. We are on a mission to change that. We are proud to amplify the voices of food banks and of hungry Californians in our statehouse and country's Capitol, in the offices of foundations and corporations, on farms and in fields, and everywhere in between. We help drive public policies that enhance the safety net. We ensure that fresh produce and healthy proteins are accessible to all Californians. We connect hungry residents with nutrition programs. And of course, we support our 41 member food banks in their work to feed communities throughout our state. Strategic and timely communication is core to the work of the California Association of Food Banks. As a statewide anti-hunger organization, we bring awareness to the pervasiveness of food insecurity throughout our state, educate about nutrition programs, activate around the policies impacting the nutrition safety net, and elevate the essential role food banks play in our society. As a membership organization, we make sure that food banks have the tools and resources they need to do what they do best: feed our communities.
