Foodbank Events
Events are a great way to bring the community together in a positive way to build awareness and raise food or funds for The Idaho Foodbank (IFB). In addition to the premier events that we produce internally, we are often the benefactors of a community event produced by someone outside of our organization.
You can learn about all our special events by visiting our Premier Events page. If you are interested in holding an event to benefit IFB, please look at the information on the right, or contact Jenifer Johnson, Vice President of Development at 208-577-2691 or jjohnson@idahofoodbank.org.
