Food Pantries
Since 1981, Food Finders Food Bank has been a critical component of the welfare of Tippecanoe and 15 surrounding counties in Indiana: providing food to member agencies, advocating for the hungry, and educating the public about hunger-related issues.
Funded by United Way, foundations, grants, the USDA, corporations, sponsors, and individual donors, Food Finders Food Bank annually distributes more than 9 million pounds of food to a network of non-profit organizations that work to alleviate hunger throughout North Central Indiana.
With approximately 110 agency partners in 16 counties, we strive to connect you to services in your area. If you or someone you know is in need of immediate food assistance, help is available. It’s as easy as dialing 211 from your telephone. Trained volunteers will direct you to assistance.
