Mission

Northwest Harvest, founded in 1967, is Washington's own statewide hunger relief agency. Our mission is to provide nutritious food to hungry people statewide in a manner that respects their dignity, while working to eliminate hunger. Our vision is that ample nutritious food is available to everyone in Washington State. We believe that good food bank nutrition creates a bridge from temporary crisis to stability, allowing people in need to use cash for housing, fuel, utilities, health care and child care. Last year Northwest Harvest secured over 24 million pounds of food for distribution to a network of 300+ food banks, meal programs and elementary schools throughout Washington.
