The Idaho Food Bank Fund has announced that its 2025 grant application process will be open from July 1-31 to Idaho 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that provide hunger relief and promote healthy eating.
Funds can be used to operate programs, purchase food, purchase nutrition education materials, expand capacity with new freezers, shelving and transportation, or promote access for anyone in need, including underserved and marginalized populations. To apply, visit idahofoodbankfund.org. Most grant awards range from $2,500 to $5,000.
The Idaho Food Bank Fund was established by the Idaho Legislature in 2009 and provides financial support to Idaho nonprofits. It is administered by Catholic Charities of Idaho and The Idaho Foodbank. The fund is financed by Idaho taxpayers when they donate through a check-off box on their Idaho state tax returns. In 2024, grants totaling $178,718 were allocated to 72 statewide nonprofits that provide nutrition education and hunger relief services across the state.
Hunger relief organizations serving Idahoans are eligible to apply for these grants. Applicants do not need to be associated with the administering organizations to apply for or receive funding. Grants will be awarded in early November.
Applications can be found online or a hard copy can be requested by emailing [email protected] or calling 208-336-9643. For more information and the online application form, visit idahofoodbankfund.org.
