NTFB has provided free culinary and
nutrition education since 1996.
Nutrition Services:
NTFB is active in the community, teaching low-income families
how to purchase and prepare nutritious meals on a budget through
educational workshops, and partners with community garden
locations to obtain fresh, locally-grown produce.
Senior Programs:
Seniors make up nearly 15 percent
of NTFB’s total clients.
As our senior population continues to grow, so does the number of
older Americans who struggle with food insecurity. NTFB’s programs
feed more than 8,000 seniors each month.
SNAP:
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP) is one of the nation’s most
important defenses against hunger. Our
team helps people find the resources
they need.
NTFB’s unique role during Mass Care
Task Force activation is to immediately
provide food, beverages and assistance
in applying for emergency social services
during the initial days of response.
NTFB aims to collaborate with community organizations in
high-need areas where agencies have limited or no capacity
for refrigeration and/or freezer storage.
