FoodLink
Founded over 25 years ago by Tom Ferraro, FOODLINK has grown to serve a 10 county area in the Genesee Valley and Finger Lakes Region of Upstate New York. As a member of America’s Second Harvest, FOODLINK obtains and redistributes over 6 million pounds of food annually to a network of over 550 programs.

As the foodbank for these regions, FOODLINK works with area food retailers, manufacturers and wholesalers to acquire, sort, store and redistribute food to our member charity programs – especially soup kitchens, shelters and emergency food pantries. In addition, FOODLINK also provides food to hundreds of non-emergency programs like group homes, day cares, senior centers and camps. Our goal is to help programs save vital dollars on their food budget. These savings can then be redirected to other programs that help meet the emotional, physical and spiritual needs of their clients.
