Join Hands with Us

Corporations and organizations are joining hands with IFBN and establishing foodbanks under their leadership to eliminate hunger in India.

Thanks to our partners' generous support, we could begin feeding India's hungry and engage our country in the fight to end malnutrition and hunger.

Companies involved in large scale production of packaged food can support IFBN by giving their surplus inventory which is perfectly good for consumption and has all food quality checks.
