Amigos que Alimentan - El Banco de Alimentos de PR

At the Banco de Alimentos de Puerto Rico, we work to ensure that no one in Puerto Rico goes without food. Through food distribution, support programs, and partnerships with communities and organizations, we strive to alleviate hunger and build a fairer future.

Nuestra visión

A future in which no family has to worry about access to food, and can instead focus their energy on growing, thriving, and caring for their health and that of their loved ones.

With this goal in mind, Amigos que Alimentanour new monthly donors campaign. This initiative makes your contribution easier and more convenient: with a single registration in the Donate tab on our website, you enter your information and automatically support thousands of families and the programs that sustain our mission every month.

Becoming an Amigo que Alimenta is more than a donation; it is an ongoing commitment so that together we can ensure that no one in Puerto Rico has to face the daily challenges of living with food insecurity.

Carmen Colón y Natanael

The Mochila Alegre program of the Puerto Rico Food Bank provides nutritious food and snacks to children at risk of food insecurity during all 52 weekends of the year, when school cafeterias are commonly closed. Currently, the Puerto Rico Food Bank supports more than 1,700 children each year through this program. Carmen and her grandson Natanael are current participants in Mochila Alegre. Every Wednesday, Natanael visits his little “store” to select healthy foods, completely free of charge, giving Carmen peace of mind and the certainty that he will have the nutrition he needs. Join our monthly donors program Amigos que Alimentan and sponsor a child from the Mochila Alegre program.

Wesley Pérez

The Alacena Universitaria program of the Puerto Rico Food Bank ensures that students at risk of food insecurity have access to nutritious meals while completing their studies. Currently, the program collaborates with more than 28 universities across the Island, impacting thousands of young people each year so that lack of food is not an obstacle to completing their college education. Wesley, a university student, participates in our program through the dining hall at the University of the Sacred Heart, “COMESA.” Thanks to the support this program provides, students like Wesley have access to daily meals that allow them to focus on their goals with energy and determination. With your monthly support, we can help more young people like Wesley achieve their academic goals. Join our monthly donors program Amigos que Alimentan.
