The Community Food Bank of Central Alabama will move into its new 72,000 sqft headquarters in Bessemer at the end of June and expects to welcome volunteers by the end of July; the modern facility on Lakeshore Drive offers expanded refrigeration capacity and multiple drive-up bays for deliveries.

The completed project offers the family a fresh start in the community.
