FoodBank South Africa is South Africa's national foodbanking network... securing quality food for the hungry.

Formed in 2009, FoodBank SA is engaging food donors, food manufacturers, retailers, faith based organizations and government in addressing hunger in South Africa.

FoodBank SA has already formed 3 community foodbanks - in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban - and plans to open 20 community and rural foodbanks within the next 3 years.

FoodBank SA was created by transforming an existing s21 not-for-profit company, Feedback Food Redistribution. However, FoodBank SA is much more than simply Feedback under a different name.

FoodBank SA meets beneficiaries' urgent food needs while encouraging them to become self-suffient in food provision. This is done through a process which includes workshops and the introduction of independent food sources such as vegetable gardens.
