Visalia Emergency Aid Council
Go the Distance with Visalia Emergency Aid Council in our 13th Annual "Race Against Hunger". VEAC understands that the problems created by childhood hunger are many. Numerous studies have shown that hunger and malnutrition have a drastic effect on a child's long-term health, academic and social behavior. The "Race Against Hunger" provides the capital needed to keep our food pantry open throughout the year. No child should go to bed hungry!

Our Mission: To diminish hunger by managing a food pantry and providing other services to low-income families and individuals in our community.

Our Vision: A hunger-free community.

Our Commitment: To serve families and individuals with respect and compassion.
