How We Serve: FOOD BANK

Since 1985, ICS has partnered with the Tucson Community Food Bank to supply emergency food boxes to individuals and families. Supplemental food and holiday boxes provide even more support to families in need.

Those who come to the ICS Food Bank are often in a temporary crisis and need a little help to get over the hurdle. Some examples include:

• A family whose breadwinner is out of work and has no income.
• Individuals or families who are experiencing an unexpected income drain, such as an illness, and need supplemental food supplies.
• A family receiving public assistance whose check has been lost or delayed and has no food.
• Homeless or indigent persons.
• Clients referred from other programs or local faith communities.
  
  The ICS Food Bank is open Monday - Friday from 9:00am - 1:00pm

  Success stories

  During a recent holiday, a woman who received food boxes dropped by ICS. She said, "You were there when I was in need. I′m back on my feet and I want to help someone else." She left a cash donation to be used to help others in need.

  "Thank you for your concern for me and my family, giving us food boxes during this difficult financial time for us."
