About the Summit
Feeding New York State supplements the work of the 10 regional food banks through our three key pillars: Advocacy, Food Sourcing, and Food Recovery. This year’s Member Summit is a space for food bank professionals to connect, learn from one another and strengthen collaboration across the state.
Who Should Attend? Anyone working in or connected to:
- Advocacy – shaping policy, community engagement, or government relations
- Food Sourcing – procurement, partnerships, or logistics
- Food Recovery – reducing waste, redistribution, or sustainability efforts
Even if you don’t work directly in these areas, every role in a food bank contributes to this work. This Summit is for all of us and it takes every department to build a stronger, more resilient hunger relief system. Bringing our New York State food banks together builds stronger systems and drives lasting impact.

In 2026, the FNYS Annual Summit continues to evolve – it’s all about coming together as a network to learn from one another and strengthen our work. While the full session schedule and event details are coming soon, we’re planning an agenda filled with engaging workshops, inspiring keynote speakers, and interactive moments throughout the event. As always, there will be plenty of opportunities to connect, share ideas, and collaborate with peers from across New York State.
