Help Us Reach
Our Goal

At the Banco de Alimentos de Puerto Rico, we work to ensure that no one in Puerto Rico goes without food. Through food distribution, support programs, and partnerships with communities and organizations, we strive to alleviate hunger and build a fairer future.

A future in which no family has to worry about access to food, and can instead focus their energy on growing, thriving, and caring for their health and that of their loved ones.

With this goal in mind, Amigos que Alimentanour new monthly donors campaign. This initiative makes your contribution easier and more convenient: with a single registration in the Donate tab on our website, you enter your information and automatically support thousands of families and the programs that sustain our mission every month.

History

Chesapeake Bay Adaptive Sailing .org.

“Banco de Alimentos is the most recognized entity in Puerto Rico that distributes food to the population since 1988. It is a private organization, that along with institutions, companies and individuals, has managed to serve annually over 1.3 million people in need. Over 13.5 million pounds of food have been distributed annually to the entire Island of Puerto Rico including the municipalities of the Islands of Vieques and Culebra. In addition, it is the only institution, that has excellent ratings in the food handling inspections by the AIB Inspectors, the Health Department, Feeding America, United Way of Puerto Rico, American International Bakery, and others, that guarantees the government, the private and public sectors, that the work is carried out under the highest standards of sanitary requirements and compliance”.

The Mochila Alegre program of the Puerto Rico Food Bank provides nutritious food and snacks to children at risk of food insecurity during all 52 weekends of the year, when school cafeterias are commonly closed. Currently, the Puerto Rico Food Bank supports more than 1,700 children each year through this program. Carmen and her grandson Natanael are current participants in Mochila Alegre. Every Wednesday, Natanael visits his little “store” to select healthy foods, completely free of charge, giving Carmen peace of mind and the certainty that he will have the nutrition he needs. Join our monthly donors program Amigos que Alimentan and sponsor a child from the Mochila Alegre program.
