Food & Fund Drives

Community Food Drive

Food and Fund Drives are critical to maintaining the flow of food to those who need it most. They help keep our warehouse and food partner agency shelves stocked, and they also play a vital role in encouraging community participation and awareness.

Hosting a Food and Fund Drive is a great way to connect with your family, friends, neighborhood, office, school, club, congregation and others. Ask friends and family to celebrate your next birthday, anniversary or other milestones by donating.

Please Consider Donating
Our Most Needed Items

  • Canned Proteins (like tuna or chicken)

  • Canned Meals (like stew, spaghetti or chili)

  • Canned Fruits

  • Canned Vegetables

  • Bags of Rice

To maximize your efforts, consider participating in our Virtual Food Drive.

Donating funds or giving through our Virtual Food Drive can provide the highest return for your effort.

Because of our affiliation with Feeding America, we’re able to stretch your dollars further. A donation of $10 helps provide food for 25 meals. That’s because we’re able to work directly with the Feeding America network and local distributors to secure large amounts of food below retail cost.
