Thanks to the support from our generous community, the 2023 Blue Jean Ball raised more than $174,000 towards critical operating funds for the food bank. The Blue Jean Ball is the first fundraiser to ensure Food Finders continues to address the essential needs of people facing hunger in our community. 

About Food Finders Food Bank

Since 1981, Food Finders Food Bank, a member of Feeding America, has worked to provide full-service programs that meet the nutritional needs of thousands of hungry families in North Central Indiana. The food bank operates programs to cost-effectively secure donated and purchased food, provide food to families in need, and educate the community about the efficient use of food resources. 

The food bank distributed 12 million pounds of food in 2023 to people facing hunger through the combined efforts of over 100 nonprofit Agency Partners and the food bank's direct service programs: BackPack Program, Mobile Pantry Program, Senior Grocery Program, Fresh Market Pantry, Education Program, and Resource Coordination.

Hunger is a real issue for nearly 65,000 individuals across the 16 counties served by Food Finders Food Bank. For many, this means needing to make tough choices: food or rent, food or medication?

Together with our broad network of community partners, Food Finders strives to take food out of this painful equation. We believe that no one should go hungry in our community. With your help, we are working to end hunger today and solve hunger tomorrow.
