Food Bank Solicitation Scam
Submitted by Lisa Sherrill, Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano

There have been a number of reports recently of unwanted phone calls in Contra Costa and Solano counties from "Northwest Food Bank" (not to be confused with North West Harvest: a food bank in Seattle) asking for donations. These calls are not originating from the food bank and appear to be a scam. Caller id shows a Washington state phone number and may appear as Northwest Food Bank. Northwest Harvest as well as the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano have not been soliciting donations via phone.
Questions or concerns can be sent to info@foodbankccs.org or 855-309-FOOD in Contra Costa and Solano counties. To find your local Food Bank, visit www.bayareahunger.org.
