Nebraska Food Bank System - Omaha, Lincoln Part of the money raised by NUMB this year will go to food pantries across Nebraska through the Lincoln and Omaha Food Banks. The Lincoln Food Bank serves pantries in 16 eastern counties, while the Food Bank in Omaha serves the rest of the state. Monies will be distributed proportionally across the state to the food pantries. Bread for the World To match direct service projects, we are also addressing public policies that can help hungry people. Bread for the World (BFW) is a nationwide Christain movement that seeks justice for the world's hungry people by lobbying our nation's decision makers. 100% of all funds raised towards these projects will go to help those in need. There will be no money used for administrative costs.
