STATEMENT 13

FOOD BANK OF WESTERN NEW YORK

Our Mission ........ is to obtain food and support from public and private sources and efficiently redistribute these resources toaffiliated charitable providers such as soup kitchens, pantries and shelters.

Our Vision... aspires to provide nutritional food, training and education options to its agencies and their clients empoweringthem to make healthy lifestyle choices

How the Food Bank WorksThe Food Bank of Western New York is a nonprofit corporation established to help the hungry by obtaining foodand grocery items from private and public sources and redirecting it in a cost-effective manner to affiliatedcharitable food providers such as pantries, kitchens and shelters in Western New York. Each month, over 79,000hungry and needy individuals in Western New Yorkers turn to soup kitchens, food pantries, and other emergencyfood providers--40% are children!

The food, deemed "edible but unmarketable" by the food industry, is safely stored in our warehouse, and thendistributed on a daily basis to qualified charitable agencies within the community working to feed the needy. TheFood Bank of WNY is one of almost 200 food banks nationwide affiliated with Feed America (formerly America'sSecond Harvest Food Bank Network).

Who Donates Food to the Food Bank?Food donations are solicited from farmers, packers, manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and other members of

the food industry. Additionally, community groups, corporations and individuals sponsor special events and fooddrives to collect canned goods and other non-perishable foods items.

What Types of Food and Grocery Items Are Donated?All types of food and related grocery items are donated, including dry, refrigerated, frozen and fresh. Non-fooditems such as paper products, soaps, and health and beauty aids are welcomed as well. Products are donated fora variety of reasons, such as:

* mislabeling * un-harvested or over ripe produce* cosmetic damage * production flaws* imperfect packaging * surplus production* discontinuation of product * shipping errors* nearness of"best used by" dates * under-weight packaging

Who Gets Food from the Food Bank?The Food Bank distributes product to approximately 394 charitable programs that feed the needy in Erie, Niagara,Chautauqua and Cattaraugus counties. These include food pantries, soup kitchens, emergency shelters, KidsCafes, child and adult day care centers, senior citizen programs, residential and day programs for the disabled,youth and those undergoing drug and alcohol rehabilitation. These programs receive almost 868,880 pounds ofproduct from the Food Bank each month.

FOOD BANK OF WESTERN NEW YORK -FOOD PROGRAMS

DONATED PRODUCTDonated food and grocery items are provided by farmers, packers, manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and otherorganizations in the food industry in addition to the generosity of Western New Yorkers who contribute to foodcollection drives. All types of food and grocery products are donated; dry, frozen, refrigerated and fresh.

VALU ADDED PRODUCTSPeriodically donated products arrive packed loose or bulk in large containers or bags and cannot be distributed inthat form; requiring more than simple repacking. For example, pantries more effectively use 12 Lb. dell hams whenthey are cut and vacuumed-sealed in 3 Lb. chunks. The cost of such "processing" is called VAP "valu added".

EFSP/FEMA (FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY)Since 1983, the Food Bank has been the recipient of the annual EFSP/FEMA grant which enables the purchase ofadditionalfood for affiliate member agencies in Buffalo and Erie County.

HPNAP -HUNGER PREVENTION NUTRITION ASSISTANCEPROGRAMNew York State's concern for the real-nourished, otherwise needy caused the Department of Health, Bureau ofNutritionto provide food banks in New York State with funds to assist in purchasing nutritiousfood for theseindividualsalong with operational support for the programs distributingthe food.

ECDSS (ERIE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES)The ECDSS Program is designed to meet emergency food needs of low-income clients of the Erie CountyDepartment of Social Services. It began in 1992 as a joint venture with ECDSS, the Food Bank of WNY andseveral member agencies.

USDA TEFAP (THE EMERGENCYFOOD ASSISTANCEPROGRAM)and SKP (SOUP KITCHENPROGRAM)In New York State, US Department of Agriculture food assistance programs are administered by the Bureau ofDonated Foods, Office of General Services (OGS) inAlbany. In 1988, OGS asked food banks in New York State totake over both the storage and distributionof TEFAP products,which are strictlyfor home consumptionby low-income people and SKP which are for consumption in soup kitchens and congregate dining areas. OGS knowsthat food banks and their emergency providernetworks are uniquelyable to direct these USDA foods to theneediest residentsof our state.

AAP (AGENCY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM)The Agency Assistance program is funded annual amounts designated by the Food Bank's Board of Directors.AAP funds assist our affiliated agencies with support in meeting the needs of their clients by providing purchasedfood items, food storage equipment such as coolers, freezers, and operations support, necessary renovations,utility bill help, and other immediate needs.

EMERGENCY INFANT FORMULA & BABY NEEDS PROGRAMThe purpose of the Emergency Infant Formula & Baby Needs Program is to meet the emergency needs of infantsand children by providingthem with a supply of infant formula and baby food. These items are distributedtoemergency food providersthat inturn service individualssuffering because of delays in receiving public assistanceand/or WIC assistance.

CO-OPThrough the agency Co-operative buying program, agencies may purchase cases of specific food items tosupplement their other food sources. This offers agencies the convenience of "one stop" shopping --and at pricesgenerally comparable to wholesale levels. Co-op also offers some non-food items such as paper products,detergents and diapers.

NUTRITIONAL and EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS

FOOD EXPRESS

The Food Express is a fully refrigerated vehicle used to deliver highly perishable fruits, vegetables anddairy items to member agencies for immediate distribution to their clients. This project was initiatedbecause many sites do not have proper cooler space to store perishable foods.

Every weekday, the truck is taken to our member agencies and their waiting patrons, young and old, whostand in line in various weather conditions to receive their allocation of these highly nutritious food items.

They get a chance to understand how their eatinghabits affect their health, learn how to prepare simple, nutritious snacks and meals and how and why to

choose foods wisely.

GARDEN PROJECT

The Garden Project has become larger and brighter each year. Interested organizations, individuals,master gardeners and member agencies have adopted beds. The master gardeners work hand in handwith individuals who have never gardened before and are now growing vegetables for their families.From spring through fall, evenings and weekends the garden is abuzz with volunteers who came out andwork on planting, weeding, watering and general maintenance of the garden

We always need and appreciate volunteers coming and lending a hand in the garden. This is a greatfamily project as well as a way of fulfilling a needed community service.
