The Fauquier Community Food Bank & Thrift Store serves food insecure individuals and families in Fauquier County. Our mission is to help those in need.
Food banks provide a sense of security. When the threat of hunger is eliminated, and when cupboards are full, individuals are empowered to move forward with their lives and towards self-sufficiency.
The Fauquier Community Food Bank & Thrift Store serves nearly 600 households per month. With the assistance of a volunteer, our clients fill a grocery cart with the healthiest and most nutritious food available. We stock are shelves with donations from local business and farms. Our monetary donations and proceeds from the Thrift Store allows us to purchase $4.00 worth of food for every $1.00 donation.
"As a senior citizen, many times I've had to make a choice between my medicines and food. Since I found the food bank I can eat a whole can of tuna at once and still get my medicine."

"I have five kids. I was so concerned about how to feed them during the summer months with no school meals. The food bank made sure I always had peanut butter, bread, and water, etc."
