The Genesis Trust was set up in 1995, and is supported by all the churches in Bath.
The projects are run by a team of 500 volunteers, who give up their time to help those in need.
Foodbank is an increasingly important part of the charity's work, providing food for people down on their luck.
People who are in financial difficulties, or in a temporary crisis are given emergency food parcels, with meals and snacks for three days.
Last month the Foodbank served its 2,000th person, and two weeks ago a sister project was was set up in the Somer Valley due to high demand.
The Bath Foodbank helps 85 people each week. Food is collected at Manvers Street Cafe, which opens from noon until 2pm on Tuesdays to Fridays.
