The Cleveland Foodbank is located on South Waterloo Road in Cleveland.

There is a need of 57 million meals a year. The Cleveland Foodbank meets the needs of 33 million of those meals.

There are still hungry people that need to be fed.

One in 6 Ohioans struggle to put on the table (1 in 4 are children).

28% of children under the age of 18 in Cuyahoga County lived in poverty in 2011.

The Foodbank serves 200,000 lbs of food in just one day.

For every dollar donated, the Cleveland Foodbank can provide enough nutritious food for four meals.

A gift of $25 will provide a local family with dinner for a month.
