On behalf of the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, Center researchers evaluated the economic impact of Ohio’s 12 Feeding America food banks, which serve all 88 counties.
In fiscal year 2023, their combined operations and capital expenditures generated $881.3 million in total economic impact, supported more than 2,600 jobs, and produced $205.3 million in earnings across Ohio.
Their work also delivered more than $6.1 million in state income and sales tax revenue.
