Sauk Valley Foodbank
The Sauk Valley Foodbank, established in 2001 following the closure of local manufacturing companies, was initiated to address the increasing demand for food assistance in the Sterling, IL area. Beginning with minimal resources, it has grown to manage over 2.6 million pounds of food annually, supporting local food pantries and agencies rather than distributing directly to individuals.
As a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, the foodbank collaborates with local growers and businesses to source food at a low cost, ensuring that community needs are met efficiently. Its dedicated partnerships with organizations like the United Way of Sterling-Rock Falls and various local farms and businesses play a crucial role in its operations and commitment to reducing food insecurity.
