Agency Capacity Building
Feeding America San Diego works with a network of 150 nonprofit organizations operating emergency food programs, shelters and soup kitchens. In addition to providing our partners with access to more than 13 million pounds of food annually, FASD provides education and funding opportunities through capacity building grants. These efforts help our network sustain and expand their services, access resources, and network with other hunger relief organizations.
