One community.
Local roots. Shared purpose.
Since 1993, Selma Area Food Bank has brought people and food together in service of our neighbors. Our roots are local. Our purpose is simple: help end hunger, right here.


A food bank. A community effort.
We gather food from growers, businesses, donors, and food bank partners, then help move it through a network of local agencies.
Those churches, pantries, shelters, and community organizations know their neighbors. Together, we bring food closer to the people who need it.
