People in San Francisco and Marin from all walks of life can find themselves food insecure for various reasons, with 1 in 5 residents at risk. According to the SF Marin Food Bank, there is a gap of 17.1 million meals in San Francisco and Marin, the number of meals that are needed by people who are food insecure, and the number of meals that are provided. This is why the Food From the Bar campaign is so effective and inspiring. An annual campaign during the spring engages law firms to compete to raise money for the SF Marin Food Bank.

In 2023, the Food From the Bar teams raised $453,505 to help our neighbors. That’s equivalent to 907,010 meals! Thank you to all the firms that worked together to support their neighbors. The 2024 campaign will run from April 15 to May 31. Click the link below to register.
