About Us
Mission: 

To end hunger in California.

Programs: 

Every day, we work alongside of our 41 member food banks and on behalf of hungry Californians. We ensure food banks have the tools and resources they need, so they can focus on what they do best: feed our communities.

We also work to change the systems that create hunger in the first place.

Why Work For Us?: 

The California Association of Food Banks believes that food is a fundamental right. Food is medicine, it is fuel for learning, a teacher of cultures, and a convener of communities. Right now, 8 million Californians are food insecure, nearly double pre-pandemic rates. We’re working to change that.

We value diversity and seek to reflect it on our team and how we do business. Our goal is to attract, develop, retain, and promote a talented and diverse workforce in a culture where all employees will contribute to their fullest potential.

It is the policy of the California Association of Food Banks to fill every position without regard to race, color, religion (all aspects of religious beliefs, observance, or practice, including religious dress or grooming practices), creed, gender (including gender identity and gender expression), marital status, registered domestic partner status, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition (including cancer or a record of a history of cancer), age, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, or related medical condition), national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, genetic information, equal pay/compensation, veteran status, or any other basis made unlawful by applicable law.
