No Kid Hungry Kentucky is a public-private coalition working so no kid in Kentucky goes hungry. By working with partners across the state, we are dedicated to ensuring every Kentucky student has access to healthy meals.
Partners
Feeding Kentucky is comprised of seven Feeding America food banks that reach all 120 counties of Kentucky and serve an estimated 1 in 7 of all Kentuckians annually. Last year, its members distributed 63 million meals in partnership with more than 800 charitable feeding agencies such as pantries, soup kitchens, and shelters.

KY Food Action Network
What is the KY Food Action Network?
The Kentucky Food Action Network was formed in 2019 with leadership from the Community Farm Alliance, Feeding Kentucky, Kentucky Equal Justice Center, and the Kentucky Center for Economic Policy. We believe that with deeper engagement from communities and other sectors this network can be a hub for positive change through food policy.
Mission and Vision
The Kentucky Food Action Network (KFAN) is a collective of individuals and organizations united under the common purpose of creating accessible and resilient food systems that prioritize the health of Kentuckians and the land across our Commonwealth by nurturing all aspects of Kentucky’s food system, from the producer to the consumer.
Get Involved
KFAN members can be any resident of Kentucky, Kentucky based organization, or regional/national allied organizations. Please fill out KFAN’s contact form for additional information.
