Community Food Projects Competitive Grants Program (CFPCGP) are USDA grants intended to bring together stakeholders from distinct parts of the food system and to foster understanding of national food security trends and how they might improve local food systems. Applications due July 16th.

OFB's policy for valuing donated food is to apply Feeding America's value per product category based on a two-year average of OFB receipts by Feeding America product type.
