Retail Food Rescue
A wide variety of wholesome foods are donated by grocers, restaurants, caterers and food distribution services.Volunteers pick up and deliver this food to emergency service programs.

The benefits of healthy eating help against the onset of cancer, diabetes, infectious diseases and a host of other conditions that lock the underprivileged into a cycle of dependency.
The Crisis Connection
Over the years, Food Link has become the first stop for help in the midst of a crisis and the last stop for help when traditional support programs are unable to help. We offer an immediate response to human needs, while others may take weeks, even months to process requests for aid.
Emergency Baby Pantry
Beginning in 1995, they responded to ever-increasing requests from hospitals, caseworkers, churches, individuals and support agencies to meet the urgent needs of babies suffering from poverty, domestic violence, teen pregnancies and unexpected family crises.
