Hunger Program

The Hunger Program provides food to Oakland residents all year. The programs distributes food to a network of food pantries and community-based organizations. This network is the Emergency Food Providers Advisory Committee (EFPAC).The Hunger Program also supports two events. These events are the Annual Thanksgiving Dinner and Project Homeless Connect outreach fair. We fund these events through donations and volunteer efforts.
