‘There are more people than ever’: Washington food banks scramble to provide for families

The need for food banks across western Washington is greater than ever.
According to Food Lifeline, food bank visits have increased by 63% this year with 1.6 million families and individuals finding themselves facing food insecurity. But, with increasing needs has come a steep decrease in donations.
“For years, the vast majority of the food we’ve distributed has been donated. Today, we are budgeting millions of dollars toward food purchases to keep our partners supplied with the foods they need. It’s just not a sustainable model,” said Ryan Scott, Chief Development Officer at Food Lifeline.
While Food Lifeline said they are “scrambling” to provide food to over 400 distribution sites across Western Washington, KIRO 7 visited a food bank in unincorporated Pierce County to hear about some of the impacts being felt in a “food desert.”
“Right now there are more people than ever. In fact, in the last 60 days, we have grown by over 700 brand-new families to food insecurity. Those are working-class people trying to keep their home, keep their car, making very hard choices to make it all work,” said CEO of the Bonney Lake Food Bank, Stacey Crnich.
The Bonney Lake Food Bank is nestled just off State Route 410 in between Bonney Lake and Buckley. On average, they serve 200 families and individuals per week, but the additional 40% increase in the last 60 days is expected to push that number closer to almost 250.
“We really want people to feel supported in their community and not feel stigma and shame around needing food resources,” said Crnich.
Bonney Lake Food Bank told KIRO 7 that in regard to donations and the food supply chain, they rely on the circular economy they’ve created with local farmers using grants from the Department of Agriculture.
They also work with the community to “activate” help in the form of single food drives as needed, and with state-of-the-art technology, like refrigerated lockers, they can create a more efficient and accessible means for people to grab their food no matter what their situation may be.

The No. 1 Oregon football team will look to wrap its regular season with a perfect record against rival Washington next Saturday at home for senior night.
The Ducks (11-0, 8-0 Big Ten) are the only unbeaten team left in the Big Ten and could get some revenge against the Huskies (6-5, 4-4 Big Ten) at 4:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 30 from Autzen Stadium.
The game will air on NBC.
Oregon coach Dan Lanning will be looking for his first win against the Huskies as head coach, having lost all three matchups in the last two seasons against UW.
The Washington team in 2024 is a far cry from what it was in 2022 and 2023, with first-year head coach Jedd Fisch replacing Kalen DeBoer (now at Alabama) and guiding Washington to a 6-5 record.
The Ducks have already qualified for the Big Ten Championship game, set to be played the following Saturday, Dec. 7.

The stakes couldn’t be higher as Washington State and Oregon State clash on Saturday with the Pac-12 Championship on the line.
The Beavers are licking their wounds after suffering their first shutout loss in nearly a decade, while the Cougars are reeling from a shocking 38-35 defeat at New Mexico.
