The Fredericksburg Area Food Bank provides food to people in need in the five counties of Planning District 16. The Fredericksburg Area Food Bank partners with more than 80 different member agencies in providing food for the poor and hungry. The Fredericksburg Area Food Bank does not give out food to individuals at this location. Instead, the food is repackaged and stored here for distribution to the different member agencies and food pantries. It is these smaller charities that deliver the food to the needy.
