Feeding the Flock SD helps care for neighbors through organized drive-through food distributions, senior pantry support, emergency food assistance, school partnerships, and compassionate outreach.
Our organization and volunteers have been providing for the community as an unofficial group for over 15 years. We made it official and founded Feeding the Flock SD in 2016 with a simple mission: to feed the hungry, honor the dignity of every person served, and show up for neighbors in times of need. Today, that mission takes shape through organized food distributions, senior support, emergency assistance, school partnerships, and volunteer service.
Our work is shaped by compassion and a faith-based desire to serve. Volunteers help receive food from the San Diego Food Bank, sort it into food boxes with items like proteins, vegetables, fruit, and canned goods, and serve those boxes through a welcoming drive-through pickup.
Feeding the Flock SD exists to relieve hunger, restore dignity, and care for people through organized food distributions, pantry support, emergency assistance, school partnerships, and compassionate outreach.
