The Ohio Association of Foodbanks is Ohio's largest charitable response to hunger, representing Ohio's 12 Feeding America foodbanks and 3,600 hunger relief agencies. They procure food through donated food, charitable dollars, and federal commodity programs to ensure that local individuals and families have access to healthy, balanced meals. Since its incorporation in 1991, the Ohio Association of Foodbanks has led a statewide effort to purchase center-of-the-plate, shelf-stable foods, protein items, and Ohio-grown agricultural products. They provide roughly 25% of all the food distributed by Ohio's foodbanks, focusing on long-term solutions for household and community stability. Additionally, they offer resources such as the National Service Program, SNAP assistance, and training and technical assistance to support Ohio's charitable hunger relief network.Generated from the website
