Food Bank Network

Food Bank Council of Michigan Distribution Map

Each member food bank has a geographic service region in which they provide food resources to communities. Based on their region, some member food banks have supporting distribution warehouses. The member food banks and their supporting warehouses are able to take large donations of food. The local emergency food providers (agencies such as soup kitchens, food pantries and shelters) then “shop” the regional food bank or warehouse to acquire food to meet the needs for their own community programs and services.
