The Estonian Food Bank is a charity organization, distributing food to people living in poverty and can only work with the help of volunteers.
In Estonia, there are 11 Food Banks. The Tallinn Food Bank operates as an umbrella organization for all Food Banks. The Food Bank collects food, controls it and distributes it weekly to 1700 families living in poverty. The Tallinn Food Bank cooperates with 45 charity organizations in Harju and Rapla county.
We fight poverty, hunger, and exclusion. The priority of the organization is always families living in poverty, especially families with many children and families with small children. All people who belong to these groups can get help. Food is distributed for free.
