Fighting food insecurity
through mutual aid.

Our Food Distribution Program provides groceries, diapers, and other essentials to those who need them.

NorCal Resist hosts monthly food and diaper distribution events, open to all members of our community. This is a free, community-driven program, and we couldn't do it without your help. Check our calendar for the next food distribution event - walk-in volunteers are welcome!

In 2022, NCR served almost 6,000 of our neighbors, giving away thousands of pounds of food and thousands of diapers.
