Fighting hunger in Lake County since 1982.
The Leesburg Food Bank works to alleviate hunger in the City of Leesburg and adjacent communities. We distribute food and essentials to families in Leesburg, Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, and Okahumpka. A volunteer-managed 501(c)(3) since 1982, we also accept non-food donations such as clothing, household goods, and medical equipment for clients and partner programs.

What we do
Foster homes, not kennels.
Animals waiting on adoption with us sleep in real beds, get used to kids and other pets, and arrive at their new family with a behavior profile built over weeks, not a label stuck to a crate.
