This federally funded program works to improve the health of senior citizens living in poverty who are at least 60 years of age. The USDA ships nutritious foods directly to Utah Food Bank, including canned fruits, vegetables, cereal, cheese, and more.
Last year, 35,995 CSFP boxes were delivered by volunteers and Utah Food Bank staff to individual residences and senior housing sites or picked up at local pantries.
This is a limited capacity program, and you may be added to a waitlist. We encourage all to apply.
This institution is an equal opportunity provider. To view the full USDA non-discrimination statement in English or Spanish and to obtain more information on filing a civil rights-related complaint, click HERE.
