Register Online for Simpler Check-In
At our food banks, we use Link2Feed, a database that helps us track how many visits are made to our food banks. During your first visit, we’ll ask you for some basic contact information and provide you with a FamilyWorks membership card for your next visit. You can make this process even faster by registering online! Simply click the button below and fill out the online form before your first visit.
Note: You will never be asked for proof of information, and you are not required to provide information in order to receive food.
FamilyWorks Membership Cards
We offer membership cards to allow you to check in with a quick scan and without having to share your name or other personal information. Ask a team member and we’ll issue you a card on a future visit. This is not a requirement to access services.

Our Food Programs
Mobile Food Pantry
To increase access to our services outside of our normal distribution hours, we created a FamilyWorks food truck. Our Mobile Food Pantry regularly visits 14 locations in North Seattle, bringing nutritious food and vital resources directly to these communities.
If you have a one-time community event or on-going location where you’d like the Mobile Food Pantry to make a stop, contact Food Bank Manager Shana McCann at shanam@familyworksseattle.org.
Emergency "No-Cook" Food Bags
To better serve participants without access to traditional cooking facilities, we offer Emergency “No-Cook” Food Bags with snacks and foods that only need a can opener and hot water. “No-Cook” Bags can be picked up Tuesday – Friday, 9am-3pm.
Online Market
FamilyWorks Food Bank is introducing online ordering! Each week, you can view our weekly items online and order a custom grocery box for your household from any computer or smartphone.
To create your account for online ordering, please register online at https://food.familyworksseattle.org/createaccount. One account is allowed per household. If you have any difficulties with setting up your account, please email us at fworders1@gmail.com or call us at (206) 647-1780.
The shopping window opens every week on Tuesday at 12:00 PM and closes at 8:00AM on Wednesday or Thursday, depending which day you’d prefer to pick-up. During this time, you can sign in to your account and place your order at https://food.familyworksseattle.org/.
Our pickup windows are:
- Wednesday: 10 am–2 pm
- Thursday morning: 10 am–12 pm
- Thursday evening: 5–6 pm
*Pickup windows may change due to closures or holiday schedules
Grocery Delivery Program
The Grocery Delivery Program is an important part of our food bank work, as many individuals and families are not physically able to make it to our Wallingford location. In 2023, we made 9,063 home deliveries to 342 households.
We are currently at capacity and are pausing new enrollments to our Grocery Delivery Program. To find out if you are eligible to be added to our waitlist, please call the Wallingford Food Bank at (206) 647-1780 (must reside in North Seattle).
Weekend PowerPack Program
More than one third of Seattle Public Schools students qualify for free and reduced price lunches at school, but what about the weekends?
Each week when school is in session, we prepare kid-friendly “PowerPacks” filled with food for students at BF Day, Daniel Bagley, and Licton Springs Elementary Schools to take home over the weekend.
That way, they can spend less time worrying about what they’re going to eat and more time being kids!
