notes: The Food Bank for Monterey County, a certified America's Second Harvest food bank, is the largest supplier of emergency food in Monterey County. We distribute 5 million pounds of food annually. We are a non-profit private organization whose mission is "…to lead community efforts in the awareness and elimination of hunger in Monterey County." To accomplish this mission, we solicit, collect, store, and then distribute food throughout the County by several means: (1) Agency Clearinghouse, a network of approximately 65 non-profit food assistance agencies; (2) direct giving programs such as Emergency Food Assistance and the Family Market. (Click on Programs for more details.) The Food Bank for Monterey County is situated on California's central coast in the city of Salinas in an area known as the "Salad Bowl of the World." Agriculture and the hospitality industry dominate the economy of the Central Coast and the national image of our area is one of wealth and beauty. However, hunger, poverty, high unemployment, and food insecurity exist. There is hunger in Monterey County. The challenge is great and we strive to meet it on a daily basis. -> The Food Bank for Monterey County, a certified America's Second Harvest food bank, is the largest supplier of emergency food in Monterey County.
