About Us
The Association of Arizona Food Banks maintains a partnership between the public and private sectors to improve service delivery and maximize food resources at every level. It is also known as an organization on the cutting edge of programs, services and advocacy on behalf of those whose voice is seldom heard.
The Association of Arizona Food Banks has been recognized nationally for its outstanding achievements by such entities as America's Second Harvest National Food Bank Network and the United States Department of Agriculture.
The Arizona Statewide Gleaning Project, a program of the Association of Arizona Food Banks, was established in 1993 to help coordinate the rescuing of produce that otherwise would go to waste. Individually, food banks have been gleaning since 1980. In 1993 the food banks joined forces to create a statewide network to facilitate the rescuing and distribution of product around the state. The Arizona Statewide Gleaning Project's success is directly related to this collaboration and cooperation.
