he Arkansas Foodbank Network has been working since 1984 to eliminate hunger in Arkansas by providing nutritious food to those in need. In 2008, we distributed almost 11 million pounds. We distributed 1.6 million to other food banks in the state and more than 9.2 million pounds of food to our more than 400 member agencies in 33 Arkansas counties. That is about 55,000 pounds of food per day. Ninety-five percent of everything the Foodbank receives is allocated to programs, enabling our agencies to serve about 23,000 hungry Arkansans in any given week.
