We Need Your Help!
Taking a Fresh Approach to hunger in north central Idaho is already resulting in a greater variety of nutritious food reaching more people in more communities. Now with the new Lewiston facility in operation, we need your help to close our Fresh Approach campaign. Give now to ensure hunger relief for the men, women, and children of our region today and tomorrow.
Helping North Central Idaho
Opened in 1994, the North Central Idaho branch in Lewiston distributes food to 31 community partners operating in Latah, Nez Perce, Lewis, Idaho, and Clearwater counties. In addition, the staff conducts programs such as Cooking Matters in all of the northern counties of the state.
A job loss and medical bills that insurance refused to pay left us uncertain if we could put food on the table. There is nothing worse than the feeling of not being able to provide for your children.
Client, The Idaho Foodbank

Grand Opening Celebration
The Grand Opening Celebration of the New North Central Branch Facility of The Idaho Foodbank was held on Thursday, May 4th in Lewiston. Over 100 community members attended, enjoyed light refreshments, and participated in tours and cooking demonstrations.
The highlight of our celebration was the unveiling of our donor walls and the recognition of our A Fresh Approach campaign committee for their hard work and dedication toward making this project become a reality. Thank you to Northwest Farm Credit Services for sponsoring this celebration.
