Kids Page

Thanks for visiting the Rhode Island Community Food Bank's Kids Page!  We're glad to know that you're interested in learning how hunger affects children in your own state, your city or town or even in your neighborhood.

The Rhode Island Community Food Bank helps people who don’t have much money by giving them food when they need it.  People can visit food pantries where they can take home some groceries to use with what they might have in their home to cook.  Or they can go to a meal site where they are served a hot meal.  For a list of all the places people can go for food, please click here.

Each month, more than 40,000 people in Rhode Island need help getting food.  Of these people, nearly one-third are children. That’s almost 14,000 kids!

For every dollar donated, the Food Bank can offer about 3 healthy meals.

Thanks again for visiting our website.  Please check back again soon for more information.
