Think Idaho when filing your taxes this year
Thousands of children, families, and senior citizens across Idaho depend on access to free emergency food. Local pantries, churches, senior citizen centers, community kitchens, and shelters struggle to meet the growing demand.
Support these non-profit groups and volunteers who help feed hungry Idahoans AND feel good about filing your taxes this year. When you fill out your Idaho state tax form, take advantage of a donation option to benefit the Idaho Food Bank Fund.
Employer Matching
There are several ways employers can support The Idaho Foodbank through workplace giving. Many companies offer matching gift programs to encourage employees to contribute to charitable organizations. Some provide matching funds to support employee volunteer hours.
Most of these programs match contributions dollar for dollar, and some will even double or triple the amount of your gift!
