We Feed Families Every Week All Year
Throughout the year we struggle to keep our pantry shelves stocked. Clients include hard-working parents trying to feed their children, adults of all ages who may live alone on fixed incomes and multigenerational families living in one household. They are coping with food insecurities.They may not know how they'll pay for groceries or whether the items they can afford will stretch to feed everyone at the table.
80% of the food we distribute from our Food Pantry is donated. We need donations throughout the year to keep our shelves stocked and offer clients nutritious selections.
We'll provide over a million pounds of food to families this year.
Setting up a Food Drive is as Easy as 1.....2......3!
Step 1: Decide what kind of drive you want to do. Focus on one item such as peanut butter or canned fruits or collect a variety of items. Our Food Pantry Shopping List provides you with many options.
Step 2: Publicize the drive. Print posters (1 and 2) and fliers and distribute to participants. To help us keep costs down, please consider providing your own boxes.
Step 3: Set a date for the drive and call us in advance at (972) 446-2100 to schedule a drop off or pick-up time.
Have questions about organizing a donation drive at your office, school, church or club? Call us.
