COVID-19 Relief
Pop-up Food Distributions
Hawaii Foodbank is ramping up operations to keep food flowing to our highest-need communities.
In order to meet the growing need, we’re establishing new community partnerships, as well as working with our existing network of food partner agencies, to deploy new methods of food distribution. We’ve organized Pop-up Food Distributions across O‘ahu and Kaua‘i to provide emergency food, fresh produce, and other items to vulnerable households who have lost access to food due to COVID-19.
Currently, there are no Pop-up Food Distributions scheduled in May.
With more than 200 food partner agencies, our network makes Hawaii Foodbank the leading hunger-relief organization in the state. A variety of food assistance opportunities are available and ready to help. Visit the link below to find a food pantry, soup kitchen, ‘Ohana Produce Plus distribution or other opportunity near you.
