Who Are the Poor

 
Who are the poor?
Who are the poor?
No ragged beggar knocks on our door –
We don’t see them, so who are the poor?
 
They just may be people you really know.
Living – but just barely so,
Valiantly not letting it show.
 
A poem by Mercia, a Food Bank volunteer. 

Fairbanks Community Food Bank is a proud member of these agencies

In May of 1982 the Fairbanks Community Food Bank began its service to this incredible community. 

30 years later, thanks to your continued support, we are still going strong.

LET'S CELEBRATE!

In this May, 2012, let's collect 30,000 pounds of food! 

The Letter Carrier's event brought in 15,000 pounds all by itself, so we are already 1/2 way there!

15,000 pounds to go!
