About us

The Food Bank of Siouxland, Inc. began as an all-volunteer organization known as the Tri-State Food Bank and became incorporated in 1991. We received our 501(c)3 status in 1994. In July 2000, we changed our name to “Food Bank of Siouxland, Inc.” – putting “Food” first! We were founded to serve community charities in Siouxland with feeding programs to nourish the needy, the ill and children. We continue to that cause today. As a warehouse, we are able to leverage our resources to supply food and other essentials to member agencies which directly serve the needy in our communities.
