Food Bank of Western Massachusetts

Food Bank of Western Massachusetts Together, we end hunger. www.foodbankwma.org

A member of the Feeding America network.

Since 1982, the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts has been a community partner to end hunger. We provide healthy and culturally responsive food directly through our Mobile Food Bank and Brown Bag: Food for Elders sites and through the 169+ member food assistance network in Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden, and Hampshire counties. These independent pantries, meal sites, and shelters are on the front lines, providing food and other resources to individuals, families, seniors, children, and people with disabilities, including veterans, so they may lead healthy and meaningful lives. The Food Bank partners on public education and advocacy to eliminate systemic barriers to food security, operating with the belief that everyone has a right to healthy food.

A big thank you to Insa and Dennis Group for returning as water stop sponsors for this year's Will Bike 4 Food!! 🎉 These are two incredibly generous businesses coming together to help keep our riders going strong out on the route on event day! We're so appreciative of the organizations that show up not only for WB4F riders, but for the larger goal of reducing food insecurity in Western Mass. Thank you both!

Guys, look at this. 🥹

This is a letter from Will Bike 4 Food rider Ellie Marchand, and we HAD to share it with you all! Ellie will be riding the 25 mile route this year with a goal of raising $2026, and she's almost there! In her own words, she'll be helping us "...pedal toward a hunger free future." 😭

There's really not much more to say besides thank you, Ellie. She's showing us that you're never too young to ride, to write and illustrate (do you see the details?!), or to show up for your community in a really awesome way. We hope you'll consider making a donation to her page today by using the link below. Thank again, Ellie! An absolutely lovely letter. 🥲🥕🚲🌼

We're still working over at Food Bank Farm, and we could really use some extra hands! 🌱

Volunteer shifts are open every week and there's plenty to keep you busy, from weeding and harvesting to foliar spraying, trellising tomatoes, and more. No farming experience needed, just a willingness to get outside. Every shift genuinely helps us grow more nutritious local food for communities across Western Massachusetts.

Sign up for a shift at foodbankwma.org/get-involved/volunteer/ and come check it out! 🍅

A big thank you to Mass General Brigham Health Plan for returning as a route sponsor for this year's Will Bike 4 Food! 🙌😁

MGB Health Plan has been a close ally of ours across different events for years, and it's easy to see why they understand our mission. Access to nutritious food is foundational to good health and overall well-being, and getting support from an organization that understands and believes in that connection is very special. We're so glad to have their support and grateful for their contribution in making the 16th annual Will Bike 4 Food possible! Thank you, MGB Health Plan!
