Food insecurity is a growing problem in Rhode Island. 144,188 Rhode Islanders receive SNAP benefits every month, whose benefits are now at risk due to President Trump's proposed massive cuts.

As Democrats, we must step up, meet the moment, and be the party that supports our working families, veterans, children, and seniors.

Please support the Rhode Island Community Food Bank throughout the month of March by donating to this link.

The Rhode Island Community Food Bank distributes food to people in need through a statewide network of 147 member agencies including food pantries, meal sites, shelter, youth programs and senior centers.

Currently, the Food Bank is serving 84,400 Rhode Islanders each month through our network of member agencies.

The Food Bank solicits food donations from the public and from the food industry, including supermarkets, food manufacturers and growers. To keep up with the high demand for food assistance, the Food Bank also purchases food at a low cost from wholesalers.

Last year, the Food Bank distributed 18.3 million pounds of food, including 4.1 million pounds of fresh produce.
