The Auburn Food Bank is in desperate need of food and financial donations. The shelves are nearly empty and the need is greater than ever.

In the past year alone, the number of individuals the food bank served increased by more than 13,000, and it is attempting to maintain its services to everyone in need.

Please bring donations directly to the Auburn Food Bank, 930 18th Place N.E., Auburn. The facility is just east of the north Auburn Top Foods parking lot, between 17th Northeast and 18th Northeast on I Street Northeast – inside the Burndale Homes apartment complex.

Hours are 9 a.m. to 1:15 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and on the second Wednesday of the month from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Auburn Food Bank donations also can be brought to White River Presbyterian Church, 526 12th St. S.E., Auburn, between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday.
