Foodlink, based in Rochester, New York, operates as a Feeding America food bank serving ten counties: Allegany, Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates. It coordinates a broad network of partners to move food to communities in need and to address hunger at both its immediate symptoms and underlying causes. The organization runs a range of food access programs that create new points of access to nutritious, affordable food and includes nutrition education to help residents make healthier choices. Its food banking operations distribute millions of pounds of food to hundreds of member agencies across its service area, while the Foodlink Community Kitchen prepares and delivers meals for the local population. The organization supports regional agriculture through farm operations and hosts a career empowerment program to help individuals with barriers to employment pursue roles in the regional food sector. In January 2025, Foodlink announced a multi-year upgrade to its headquarters facilities and its community farm to expand capacity and upgrade equipment.
