The Yuma Community Food Bank

 S.O.S. (Stock our Shelves) Food Drive

April 1st - June 30th 2012  

The Food Bank is sending out an Emergency S.O.S. Summer months are the most challenging for children and families in Yuma and La Paz counties.  These children and their families depend on school breakfast and lunch programs during the school year but face the hard reality that food is not as available through the summer to sustain their nutritional and growing needs.  The Food Bank launches an S.O.S  encouraging local businesses, schools, organization groups, social groups and faith based organizations to organize a food drive.


These food drives are essential to continue our support to our community and that of other non profit organizations such as:Crossroads Mission/Shelter, Salvation Army, St. Vincent De Paul, 7th Day Adventist, Catholic Community Services and 20 others to support food programs offered to our community.

To schedule a food drive or for more information please call Rebecca White @ 343-1243 ext 11
