Emergency Food Assistance Program (EFAP)

EFAP is a government program under USDA. FoodLink receives between one-half and two million pounds of food from EFAP every year. The EFAP food commodities are provided by the USDA through surplus foods, price subsidies and other USDA food purchases. These food items vary, but typically include flour, dry milk, fruits and vegetables, peanut butter and other foods. These EFAP commodities are distributed at 22 mass distributions held at emergency pantries, soup kitchens and rescue missions in each major town throughout the county.
