Reliable support makes a difference long after a gift is given. For Food Bank of Alaska, Crowley Fuels Alaska has been a partner we can count on year after year, helping keep food moving to communities across the state.
This September, Crowley is our Hunger Action Month sponsor, helping raise awareness of food insecurity and inviting others to take action. Through a challenge match of up to $10,000, Crowley is giving donors an opportunity to double their impact and help more Alaskans access the food they need.
At this month’s Anchorage Chamber of Commerce Business After Hours event, co-hosted with Northern Air Cargo, Crowley also presented Food Bank of Alaska with a generous $75,000 gift. That support helps sustain the work happening every week, well beyond Hunger Action Month.

Food Bank of Alaska and our partners serve approximately 20,000 households across the state each week. Behind that number are families making difficult decisions about how to cover their groceries alongside other essential expenses. Meeting that need takes a statewide network of local partners and supporters willing to keep showing up.
"At Crowley, we believe strong communities are built when we take care of one another. Partnering with Food Bank of Alaska allows us to help families across the state access the meals they need, and we’re proud to stand alongside so many others working to fight hunger in Alaska." - Kollin Fencil, EVP & Division President, Crowley Fuels
We are grateful to Crowley Fuels Alaska for its continued generosity and for encouraging others to be part of this work. Year after year, that commitment helps make food assistance possible for Alaskans who need it.
