Food Drives are a fun way to involve your friends, family, organizations, and business in the effort to help your community. Typically, we think of food drives, but a drive could also collect clothing, personal care items or even cash donations or orders from an Amazon wish list.
Host a Food Drive:
Tackling hunger takes a team! Host a food drive with your friends, family, or coworkers, to provide much-needed food and household items that our clients need most. The weather is great in the spring and summer months for a food drive but is also most needed since we see a decline in pantry donations during this time.
We’ve added a printable document for our most-needed items throughout the year to help with your drive.
Food Drive participants can also view our Amazon Grocery list to make their donations. Participants add items of their choosing to their cart and then check out. Food items are then shipped directly to Grimes Storehouse.
