Every day, the Vermont Foodbank community has a positive impact on food security. This community helps gather and share food to alleviate hunger today; advocates for systems change to reduce hunger tomorrow; donates, volunteer, and shares personal stories; and lets others know how they can give and get help. The following stories and information provide highlights of what we accomplished together last year.

Vermont Foodbank staff and partners visited with Vermont's congressional delegation and others in Washington D.C. to advocate for federal food access programs this month during Feeding America's Fly-In.

Food security advocates, food access partners, and neighbors joined legislators at the Vermont State House on Feb. 6 to urge policy choices that ensure food security for everyone who lives in Vermont.
