Addressing Community Needs with Bank of America
The Idaho Foodbank is deeply grateful for the generous and longstanding support of Bank of America and the Bank of America Charitable Foundation. Since 2008, Bank of America has invested more than $336,000 in our mission through foundation grants, matching gifts, and sponsorships, helping strengthen hunger‑relief efforts across Idaho.
In 2025, the Bank of America Charitable Foundation awarded a $10,000 grant and later invited The Idaho Foodbank to apply for additional funding during the government shutdown in fall 2025, when demand for food assistance increased sharply. Altogether, Bank of America contributed $25,000 last year, providing critical support for emergency food relief statewide during a time of heightened need.
“Many Idaho families face affordability challenges,” said Lauren Murray, president, Bank of America Idaho. “As a demonstration of our commitment to responsible growth, Bank of America partners with The Idaho Foodbank to bring financial and volunteer resources to help meet the communities’ needs with urgency and care. We applaud the Idaho Foodbank’s ongoing dedication and value the opportunity to help Idahoans access the resources they need to thrive.”
Bank of America’s partnership extends well beyond financial support. Since 2022, Bank of America employees have contributed 248 volunteer hours, with Treasure Valley branch teams volunteering five times in 2025 alone, and recently on February 25, 2026. By helping sort and repack food for distribution, their hands‑on support directly benefits our neighbors facing hunger.
We are truly grateful for Bank of America’s holistic commitment to The Idaho Foodbank and the communities we serve.
