About Egyptian Food Bank
The Egyptian Food Bank (EFB) is an NGO based in Egypt
The Egyptian Food Bank was established in 2004 as a non-governmental organization dedicated to achieving food security in Egypt. Over the past 20 years, the Egyptian Food Bank — the region’s first development institution specializing in providing healthy food to those in need — has consistently supported the most vulnerable families in Egypt, addressing the challenges of accessing sufficient, safe, and nutritious food. This effort has directly contributed to alleviating hunger on a national level.
