  • 2 Breakfast items (cereal, oatmeal or breakfast bars)
  • 2 Shelf-stable milks
  • 2 Lunch entrees 
  • 2 Dinner entrees
  • 2 100% juice boxes

​​Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) - Senior Meal Program

Seniors are often forced to choose between paying rent, utilities, medical bills, and buying food.

Mobile Food Distribution Program

Tri-State Food Bank’s Mobile Food Distribution Program focuses on feeding people in under-served areas. Our goal is to supply food where it’s needed most. The mobile food distributions are arranged in partnership with local churches or other local service agencies, and are intended for residents in that area. At each mobile food distribution, a truckload of food is distributed directly to people at risk of hunger in the form of pre-packed boxes along with produce and other fresh items when available. Those receiving boxes will be required to provide their name, number in their household, and the county in which they reside. Please see our calendar for a list of Mobile Food Distribution locations.
