chamblisscenter.orgThe Chattanooga Area Food Bank is the region’s leader in nutrition assistance — distributing food for over 17 million meals across our 20-county service area in Southeast Tennessee and Northwest Georgia last year. The Food Bank provides more than just food for meals — we offer a lifeline for our food-insecure neighbors. We integrate wrap-around services at distributions and have public benefits specialists on call to help remove barriers and create opportunities for hope and wellness.
