Did you know that nationwide, 1 in 6 Americans struggle with hunger each day? For a wealthy nation, it is eye-opening to realize your neighbor may be one of those who is not sure where their next meal is coming from. Welcome to the Fauquier Community Food Bank and Thrift Store. Our food bank provides USDA Commodities, Senior Commodity boxes, pantry services, some personal supplies, and firewood when available to registered clients in Fauquier County. During the 2016-2017 fiscal year our food bank served 7,841 families which consisted of 6,457 children, 10,115 adults and 3,536 seniors. According to the USDA, the state of Virginia fares better than most states but still has 9.6% of households rated as “Food Insecure.” As part of the Blue Ridge Regional Food Bank system and its major corporate donors, we are able to purchase $12 worth of food with each dollar donated to us. You can help your neighbors.
