Solid Ground’s Food System Support staffs the Seattle Food Committee, which provides technical assistance, administrative services and advocacy support to a coalition of 27 Seattle food banks.
- We help Seattle’s food banks respond to increased community need through equitable distribution of emergency food.
- We make bulk purchases of critically-needed foods and deliver over 7 million pounds of food each year to Seattle food banks.
- We also provide training and support covering everything from pest management, to grant writing, to how to operate a culturally-competent food bank that meets the needs of its patrons.
