FIND Regional Food Bank’s homebound program helping those in dire need of food

INDIO, Calif. (KESQ) - As 2025 comes to an end, many in our community continue to struggle to make ends meet. This is why we are highlighting the FIND Regional Food Bank homebound program, which serves those who are in dire need of food.

FIND launched a Home Bound Delivery Program in 2020 in response to the stay-at-home orders mandated by the State of California. Through this program, volunteers utilize their own vehicles to deliver 40-50 pounds of food to families and individuals who are isolated or unable to collect food via the various distribution sites throughout the region. FIND Food Bank is committed to continuing this program beyond the pandemic in order to make sure we best serve our most vulnerable and isolated clients.

Our Telemundo anchor Hernan Quintas spoke to a recipient and volunteers who are truly making a difference.

Contact the Volunteer Programs Department to sign up to become a homebound delivery driver at 760-542-2176 ext. 132 or email volunteers@findfoodbank.org
