Mission: The Food Bank of Central Louisiana's mission is to alleviate hunger in Central Louisiana. We distribute food and grocery products to needy families through a network of approved charitable agencies in eleven parishes: Allen, Avoyelles, Catahoula, Concordia, Grant, LaSalle, Natchitoches, Rapides, Sabine, Vernon and Winn. Food is channeled through more than 161 member agencies including food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, and other nonprofit organizations. This is estimated to serve more than 22,400 needy people per month. (Less)
