Financial
Financial donations are used to purchase approximately 50% of the
food distributed by the Food Bank. We receive many food items
through "in-kind" donations, yet we must augment these
donations with purchased items to provide a nutritionally balanced
food basket. Thus, financial contributions to the Food Bank
are equally as important as the food donations that support our
efforts.
If you prefer not to use the on-line donation link above, donations can be mailed to us. Make checks out to the Alameda Food Bank. Our mailing address is as follows:
Alameda Food Bank
P.O. Box 2167
Alameda, CA 94501
Payroll Deductions
Donations may be easily arranged through the United Way as a payroll
deduction dedicated to the Alameda Food Bank. Call the
Bay
Area United Way at (415) 772-4300.
