Food for Others is one of the largest distributors of free groceries in Northern Virginia, providing the assistance vitally needed by our unemployed and low-income neighbors. We provide a much-needed safety net for those who suddenly face unforeseen emergencies. No one should have to choose between paying a bill or putting food on the table for their family. 

We provide food through 4 programs:

1. Emergency Food operations at our warehouse (open Monday-Friday, 9:30am-5pm) provide 3-5 days’ worth of non-perishables as well as milk, eggs and other fresh food to people referred to Food for Others by Fairfax County CSP and various social service providers. Those clients who qualify based on low income may also receive monthly food supplements that we order on their behalf from the USDA Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP).

2. Neighborhood Site distributions provide food to individuals and families via volunteers who pick up food at our warehouse and deliver groceries to low-income neighborhoods. This occurs every evening, Monday through Friday, serving 11 sites. 

3. The Community Partners program provides bulk food items to over 22 community partners on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. This includes faith-based organizations, homeless shelters and other groups serving at-risk residents facing food insecurity in northern Virginia.

4. The Power Pack Program (P3) provides weekend backpack food to Fairfax County public elementary school students identified by school social workers as in need of supplemental food. Over 110,000 packs were distributed last school year, and we're currently serving over 3,900 students each week.
