About

Rainier Valley Food Bank(RVFB) is an organization of volunteers dedicated to providing food to families of Southeast Seattle. RVFB distributes food to families, senior citizens, the disabled, and homebound people. We started in August of 1990, with an all volunteer staff. Today we serve over 16,000 families each month.

Mission Statement

There are many people who live in poverty in our community. Some are unable to work, others cannot find work that pays a living wage, or they are between jobs. RVFB helps these people in times of need. Our long term goals are to eliminate hunger in Rainier Valley, educating the community about the nutritional and health needs of low income groups and work with the community to develop opportunities for people with no source of reasonable income. . We accept donations Tuesday through Saturday from 8 am - 2:30pm.
