Food Bank For New York City's mission is to end hunger by organizing food, information and support for community survival and dignity.

Food Bank For New York City was founded in 1983 to address the growing needs of people seeking emergency food assistance in New York City. In July 2007, FoodChange, Inc. became a subsidiary of the Food Bank. Over the years, the Food Bank has experienced dramatic growth in the areas of food distribution, operations, programs and research to better serve our network of community food programs — and ultimately the people in New York City who rely on the food we provide.
