Selma Area Food Bank

Selma Area Food Bank The Selma Area Food Bank has been in operation since October 18,1993. It is our goal to stop hunger, right here at home. C, Selma, Alabama 36701.

We are a non-profit food bank proudly serving our neighbors in the battle against hunger and food insecurity in the Dallas, Marengo, Perry, and Wilxcox counties of Alabama since 1993. Through the years we have been able to distribute food to many people that otherwise would have gone hungry. Our service area includes 4 counties: Dallas, Wilcox, Marengo and Perry. We have almost 50 active agencies

that receive food from us and distribute to their community. The Selma Area Food Bank is a warehouse for bulk food items. The food comes from donations and local businesses. Our community is who has kept us going for so many years. We never take any donation for granted and appreciate all efforts to help the food bank grow. If you are looking for a worthwhile charity you have found a good one. We are all for sending help to the other needy areas of the world but there are things to be done here at home. Every $1 will provide 14 pounds of food. 14 pounds of food could be used to prepare several meals.Feeding America has made a huge effort to increase awareness of hunger in the United States. If you are interested in donating our Address is:
101 Ave. If you would like to help us pack boxes or distribute food we would be glad for your assistance . Our number is 334-872-4111. Monday - Wednesday 8:00-3:00 and Thursday 8:00-1:00 (CST). Thank you so much for taking an interest in our organization.

So much power in this little statement!

Did you know that for every dollar donated to the Selma Area Food Bank, we can distribute around 5 pounds of food across Dallas, Marengo, Perry, & Wilcox counties!

So it looks like this...

$1 = 5 pounds
$5 = 25 pounds
$10 = 50 pounds
$100 = 500 pounds

A dollar may seem ordinary to some, but to others it can mean the food they need to survive and thrive in the battle against hunger and food insecurity!

Donate today at https://selmafoodbank.com/donate/

Thanks for making the "ordinary" special!
