Who Can Visit?
Tampa Bay Network to End Hunger is a coalition organization, not a food distribution site. They don't give out food directly at this address. Instead, they bring together over 350 member organizations across Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas counties to work on ending hunger in Tampa Bay.
If you're looking for food, their Find Food page connects you to local food pantries, meal programs, and mobile food pantries in the area. You can also call 2-1-1 or text your zip code to 898211 to find help nearby.
Additional Support
The organization maintains a Hunger Gap Map that shows food supply and demand by zip code across the three-county area, making it easier to find resources close to you.
Their Find Food page also lists information about applying for SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) online at www.myflorida.com/accessflorida or by calling 866-762-2237. SNAP agents are available Monday through Friday 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
They also run Meals on Wheels for Kids, which delivers lunchtime meal packs and groceries to children during summer break when school is out of session.
