Find Food Assistance

Hawaiʻi Foodbank is here to help you and your family.

Hawaiʻi Foodbank is committed to providing safe food access to everyone who needs it. You may be eligible for federally funded programs like The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), or you may just need temporary food assistance until you get back on your feet. Additionally, other food pantries and food distribution sites remain open across the state. With more than 250 hunger relief partners across Oʻahu and Kauaʻi, help is likely available in or near your neighborhood.

If you live on Oʻahu, use the interactive map below to find a food pantry or ʻOhana Produce Plus distribution near you. Food Assistance handouts are also available for Oʻahu and Kauaʻi, as well as links to our partners on the neighbor islands.

Hawaiʻi Foodbank is partnering with community hubs as well as our longstanding network of hunger relief partners to ensure all those affected by the Kona Low storms have consistent access to safe and healthy food in the coming weeks and months.

Below, we’ve highlighted distributions and pantries in and near areas affected by the storm. We have dozens of other opportunities available each week across the island through our network of hunger relief partners — please see the Oʻahu Food Assistance Finder map below or scroll to the Oʻahu Food Assistance Handout below for a downloadable printout of all resources available on the island for you.

We are working closely with community partners to identify additional opportunities to support communities with both food distributions and meals. We will be updating this resource regularly; please check back for updates. If you have questions or need additional support, please call us at 808-836-3600, email us at info@hawaiifoodbank.org, or call 211.

Neighbor Connector is part of Feeding America’s Service Insights project and helps us better understand our community’s needs so we can improve our services and advocate for more resources. All information you provide is kept private and secure. As more of our agency partners begin using this system, you’ll experience faster, more streamlined access to food assistance across multiple locations. This simple check-in process helps us serve you better while respecting your time and dignity.
