Story

Hampton Roads has seen up to a 30% increase in food insecurity due to the impacts of inflation, rising food costs, and greater demand. Now more than ever our foodbanks are in need of additional support. One in 10 Virginians struggle with hunger across Hampton Roads.

Join the Newport News Police Department, Newport News Sheriff's Office, and Newport News Office of the Mayor as we help support those in our local community. We are accepting canned and non-perishable items, as well as monetary donations. Your donation provides fresh produce, meat, and dairy which cannot be donated. No donation is too big or too small! For every dollar donated, we can provide three healthy meals to our community.

About the charity

Virginia Peninsula Foodbank serves families, seniors, and individuals that reside in Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson, and Williamsburg, and the counties of Gloucester, James City, Mathews, Surry, and York. We inspire hope by leading the effort for a hunger-free and properly-nourished community.
