Home / Food Bank

Food security.
Every household. Every community.

No child can play, learn, or grow on an empty stomach. The Ìṣẹ́yà Foundation Food Bank delivers staple foods to communities across Ogun State — free, dignified, and on a published schedule. Register your community, or sponsor a distribution day.

Before a child can run, they need to eat. Before they can study, they need to eat. Before they can be screened for malaria, treated, or taught, they need to eat.

Food is the foundation of everything else we do. It is the first pillar.

How It Works

Three steps. Zero cost.

01

CDA registers the community

The community's CDA chairman or leadership registers through our standard community form. They provide the venue, expected household count, and a coordinator's contact.

02

We schedule a Community Day

We pick a date, publish it on this page, and arrive with food, medical staff for health screenings, and volunteers. One trip — two services.

03

Households receive food — free

Households register on-site. No fees. No agents. No discrimination. Every family that needs food receives food. Every child receives a health screening.

The Community Day

One visit. Two services.

Every time we visit a community, we bring food and health screenings. Same venue, same volunteers, same day. Because a child who is fed but untreated gets sick again, and a child who is treated but hungry cannot heal properly.
