Alameda County Community Food Bank

• Other Grantmaking Interests
  • Employee Matching Grants

This grant matches a donation by a Walter and Elise Haas Fund employee to the Alameda County Community Food Bank, which is on an ambitious path to end hunger in Alameda County. Through a network of 240 strategically placed member agencies – food pantries, soup kitchens, child-care centers, senior centers, after-school programs and other community-based organizations – as well as its own direct-distribution programs, the Food Bank distributes enough food to serve 1 in 5 Alameda County residents. That translates to 116,000 people each month, a majority of whom are children and seniors.
