How does the Capital Area Food Bank help the hungry in the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area?
A. Providing food to those at risk of hunger through 700 partner agencies is the foundation of what we do. Additionally, the CAFB provides many nutrition education programs that equip those at risk of hunger with skills to more efficiently meet their current and long-term food and nutrition needs. The CAFB also conducts Food Stamp Outreach to help people understand the process for applying for Food Stamps; complete applications and submit them to the appropriate office.
