Join ARA in Supporting Utah Food Bank's Mission of Fighting Hunger Statewide!

Since 1904, Utah Food Bank has stayed true to its objective of serving those in need throughout our state. They work tirelessly with community partners and volunteers to continue making an impact and fulfilling our mission of Fighting Hunger Statewide.

Last year, Utah Food Bank distributed 58 million meals via a statewide network of 309 partner agencies located in all 29 counties. In addition to being one of only a handful of food banks nationwide that distributes food free-of-charge to partner agencies, they also offer several direct service programs to help the most vulnerable populations in our state - children and seniors.

Utah Food Bank can stretch each $1 donated into $7.23 worth of goods and services, so every donation truly has an impact. Please support their important work today with a donation!
