Private Community Food Distributions

Our Private Community Food Distributions provide equitable access to free, fresh food for our senior, low income, mobility-restricted, and homebound neighbors throughout Yolo County.

Conceived at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 as an emergency response, this program serves over 200 households through home deliveries and 1,100 households at 24 community housing distributions each month.

Our goal is to meet the needs of each individual’s unique circumstances through two distinct distribution models:

Home Deliveries:

• Offering food deliveries – fresh produce and shelf stable pantry items – every other week, to individual’s homes (limited capacity).
• Dozens of dedicated Yolo Food Bank volunteers and two of our partner organizations — Mercy Coalition of West Sacramento and Food 4U Foundation — make this effort possible delivering nutritious food every other week directly to residents’ doors.

Community Distributions:

• Private food distributions at 24 senior and affordable housing communities throughout Yolo County.
• Please contact your property manager to find out if there is a distribution at your location.
