I am the volunteer coordinator for the Issaquah Meals Program. The Meals Program is fortunate to have a lot of great partners in the area and the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank is at the top of the list. The IFCB has helped our program through so many ways it's impossible to list them all. Some of the more important areas they have helped include: volunteer suggestions, community connections, helping with evening meals, and as a resource in numerous areas for those in need. I have the highest regard for the IFCB and how important it is to Issaquah and the surrounding communities.

I visited with my kids for the first time today & I instantly felt welcomed. The staff were kind & very helpful! We left home with bare minimum in our cupboard & fridge & left the food bank with enough to feed us for the week. My son enjoyed being apart of putting food in the bags & was super excited that he was able to grab his favorite fruits & snacks. I truly appreciate the staff for making us feel comfortable, welcomed & providing us food that we desperately needed!

Well my first time going, I thought it was a bit small and cramped as it can get a crowd. But the food pantry had a wide variety of foods to choose from with a list that post how many of each item you are able to have. Inside the clothing bank it's the same thing they give you a couple bags and let you walk around and fill them up. What I was most pleased by is while in the clothing bank my gold band fell off in clothing bin with much panic I decided to give them a call and it was found and keep inside a safe til it was redeemed

Every day that I volunteer, at the IFCB, I see the less fortunate in our Community walk through the door and leave with a few bags of food that will make a difference in their lives. Our Clients are treated with the utmost respect and the volunteers go out of their way to help them in any way they can. I have been involved with many Community organizations, but I am most impressed with how the core mission of helping out our neighbors is always front and center in how the organization is run.

The Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank has amazing, thoughtful, and compassionate staff that go well above and beyond to serve our community. I have witnessed grace, friendships, and community building from the Director to the amazing Volunteers in working with people in need of food and clothing. I'm excited to see the new model. I have seen cold and sterile food bank providers and this is certainly not one of them! I am so grateful that Issaquah has this resource. There is even a Groceries to Go program for home bound folks and people living in rural areas. Kudos to Cori and her team for doing this right.

The Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank is an amazing part of this community. Without their assistance many would go hungry and would be cold. Nobody looks down on you so you don't feel like you are less than anyone else.

I have visited this establishment recently and they are amazing, full of caring staff and volunteers. Covid guidelines are strictly enforced and it's nice that they won't allow any rule breakers. The food offered is very good quality and the selection is vast.

The Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank does a tremendous job for not only our community, but for the entire surrounding area-- Renton, Bellevue, Redmond, Fall City and beyond. I know very little about IFCB, but they need to take a long hard look at what is being accomplished at the Issaquah Food Bank, they should be the poster child for what is good at IFCB. Thanks to the leadership,vision and commitment of Cori Walters, IFCB Executive Director.

I tried volunteering here for a couple of years. Unless you can get accepted into their social circle it's not all that great. Friendly people and really friendly clientele. Once someone decided they didn't like me for being "employed" with a so-so decent income they decided to start calling me and asked me not to show up. Regardless of where I signed up to volunteer they always stuck me int the clothing department because no one wanted to be there. I learned quickly wear old sweaty cloths and don't bring more than your driver's license and cell phone. I gave up a whole day of paid work for them only to be told "Don't show up an hour before."

Food is important but most of it is expired by several years or perishing.

I tried donating on a regular basis and most of the time they were not all that appreciative of what I tried to donate. A lot of times I had to place it in the donation hole and hope it didn't get squished or damaged in the pile.
