Food Drives are a great hands-on way to increase the supply of food at the Food Bank. Also, consider adding a Fund Drive component to maximize your impact!
Things to consider when deciding what to donate:
- Give with respect. Please only donate items that are unopened and in their original packaging. Do not donate expired, damaged, or partially used products.
- Consider the nutrient density of what you are donating. Opt for canned goods packed in water or items that are low sodium or low sugar.
- When available, pop-top cans and other easy-open containers help make food more accessible.
- Avoid glass containers!
