The Orangevale-Fair Oaks Food Bank desires to make a positive impact on our community by helping those who have hit difficult times. If you have lost a job, are struggling to meet basic needs, or just need someone to help or pray with you – we are here to help.
Eligibility
Any family residing in Sacramento County will be eligible to receive groceries once per month.
Starting May 1st 2021: Clients will be able to receive food 2 times per month. You will not be able to receive food consecutive weeks (back to back weeks) but every other calendar week as needed.
**Through April 30th, 2021 due to the COVID-19 epidemic, you will be eligible to receive food once per week. We are apart of the Sacramento Food Bank network, so you are only eligible to receive food from one food bank per week.
Documents to Bring
Bring some form of photo ID (driver’s license is best) and some documentation (such as a bill, piece of mail, etc) that shows your residence being in Sacramento County.
Available Hours
All distributions will be at our Main Ave location until further notice. We are utilizing a drive-thru distribution to limit contact and implement social distancing.

We have changed over to a drive-thru distribution model due to Covid and will continue with this model into the future. You stay in your car the entire time. We have volunteers that will take your ID to the computer and then load your groceries for you.
