We are on a mission to end hunger in Oklahoma.
We need your help to make it happen.
Hunger is closer than you think. Oklahoma has a food insecurity rate of 16.1% - nearly double the national average. Hunger knows no boundaries — it touches every community in Oklahoma, including your own. We're a member of Feeding America, the nation's leading domestic relief charity.
Our mission is to feed the hungry of eastern Oklahoma through a network of partner agencies and to engage our communities in ending hunger.
16.1% Food
Insecurity Rate
Oklahoma is one of only five states with a food insecurity rate above 14.5%. Feeding American projects will climb to 22.5% in the coming years.
1 in 4 Children Go
To Bed Hungry
As one grandmother explained, “I can draw a bath. I can read a bedtime story. But I can’t create food out of thin air.”
583,570 Are Food Insecure
1 in 6 of our statewide population is considered food insecure, leaving 594,000 Oklahomans unsure where they will get their next meal.
Underserved Communities
Every community in the Oklahoma faces hunger. But rural communities and communities of color are especially hard hit by hunger.
Every $1 Provides Four Meals
Your compassion and support help feed children, families, and neighbors facing hunger. For every $1 donated, we can provide four meals to a family in need. We are on a mission to end hunger in eastern Oklahoma.
We need your help to make it happen.

Building Hope
The new Food Bank building will increase capacity in the culinary center, volunteer center, warehouse, and partner agency access. Updates to the culinary center, including commercial-grade kitchen equipment, will allow the agency to increase its service from 11,000 to 40,0000 meals per week.
The project is expected to be completed by Summer 2023.
