The West Seattle Food Bank can only do its work because of the strong support we receive from the West Seattle community - from families, individuals, churches and community organizations, our elected official and our community service partners. Thanks to all for your valuable support.
Donate money, food, and other items
Your financial contributions help the food bank to operate and maintain the high quality of our programs. Your donations will help to pay for operating costs as well as for the purchase of bulk food items.
Donations of food are always needed and greatly appreciated. Last year we distributed 1,057,743 pounds of food! We received 836,215 pounds through donations.
You can also help us with office supplies or other items. Please see the list on the left of this page.

Workplace giving
If your workplace offers payroll deductions you can support us every month by designating the West Seattle Food Bank on your contribution form. Also, many employers match charitable contributions made by their employees. Check out this option where you work.
Introducing Gividend
Gividend is a FREE local deal site that combines various deals happening in our area (from sites like, Groupon, Buy With Me, etc.), puts them all in one place, and also gives back to the community!
Right now, for each new member that signs up through our unique link and designates WSFB as their charity of choice, Gividend will also donate a $1 to WSFB.
So sign up here for FREE now, and start saving and giving back today!
Every time you make a deal purchase from any of the deal sites through Gividend, they will donate a portion of your deal back to WSFB.

Hold a food drive
A fun way to help out - and get more people involved in fighting hunger - is to sponsor a food drive during celebrations (birthdays, weddings, family reunions) or any time of year in your neighborhood or workplace. This is a great way to get children involved in volunteer work. Contact us if you’d like help in organizing a food drive.
Volunteer
Last year the West Seattle Food Bank had over 200 volunteers that served over 11,160 hours. We are grateful to have so many local community members helping us in a variety of ways to carry out our mission. Most of our volunteer opportunities are during our open hours of Monday through Friday 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M.
