Food Bank

Everyone Eats Today

“Everyone Eats Today” is the motto for our Fourth Avenue South Seattle Food Bank. We helped distribute over 1,475,000 pounds of food last year to over 130,000 needy individuals and families who were hungry. People coming to the Food Bank can expect to receive quality produce, meats, dairy products, frozen foods, and of course non-perishable items.

We Welcome Guests to Our Food Bank

We treat everyone who comes through our doors as “guests,” because they are.

Our Address & Hours

5972 Fourth Avenue South

Seattle, WA 98108

Our food bank serves guests every week on Tuesday and Thursday between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Blessed Sacrament Sunday Dinner

Every Sunday, Seattle’s best full course hot meal is prepared and served to our “guests” at Blessed Sacrament Church at 5041 Ninth Avenue Northeast in the University District. The Sunday Dinner, operated by the St. Vincent de Paul Blessed Sacrament Conference, has been feeding the hungry for 40 years. During that time an estimated 900,000 meals have fed needy people who are homeless, unemployed or people living on low incomes. Fresh and non-perishable food donations are always welcomed.

We Need Non-Perishable Food

We have a continuing need for non-perishable canned and dry goods! Our supplies have really been depleted this fall because of a shortage of food products everywhere. We need chili, canned meats, soups, mac-cheese, spaghetti noodles, spaghetti sauce, ramen cereal, canned fruits and vegetables, and rice. We will be happy to work with individuals, families, schools, and businesses on all kinds of drives to help us get more food.

Food Bank Donors Making a Difference

We have a number of very special donors to our Food Bank. Their heartfelt generosity in giving to the poor is unique and very much appreciated by St. Vincent de Paul in Seattle and King county. Thank You!
