The White Center Food Bank began unofficially in the mid-1970’s as an emergency response to assist struggling families and individuals in the greater White Center and Highline areas during a major economic downturn. Much like today, many in the community were facing difficult economic conditions that left them in need of food resources.

We were there then. We are here now.

Please visit us at the White Center Food Bank if you are in need of assistance. We are here to help.
