About Food For People

Food For People is an organization working to feed hungry people in Humboldt County, CA. Food For People is the largest food bank in the county, distributing over 1,566,188 pounds of food each year. They provide food to 11,000 households PER MONTH in Humboldt county, each with an average occupancy of 2.5 people. That’s a LOT of hungry people for a county with a population of 127,000.

Humboldt County is the 3rd hungriest county in California when it comes to adults and there are more hungry children in Humboldt than ANY other county in California.

Food For People has seen an increase in requests for their services over the last few years and they are now finding themselves turning people away during the 2nd and 3rd weeks of the month, as they just don’t always have enough to go around.

Hunger is an issue all over the world and there are many organizations working to eradicate it in their areas. Jessicurl raised $250 for Food For People to help give something back to our community which has given SOOO much to us. Thank you not only to the local stores selling Jessicurl but to Jessicurl customers around the country who contributed.
