Did you know that you can save a person from hunger while saving the planet? The City of Waynesboro has partnered with us to raise food for the hungry on a regular basis!
Residents dropping off their recycling items at Waynesboro's recycling center may also drop off non-perishable food donations in our on-site shed generously donated by Home Depot. (Boxed and canned foods only - no glass please)
The Waynesboro recycling center, located at the intersection of Delphine Ave. and 6th Street, will collect boxed and canned goods in the shed through Nov. 30th. From Dec. 1 - Mar. 1, 2010 they will collect strictly boxed goods. Hours of operation are

The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank Network is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization and all contributions are fully tax-deductible as allowed by law. The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank has not ever, and will not ever, sell our mailing list. Our donor files will always remain confidential.
It is the Food Bank's policy not to monitor and keep track of donations under $500.00 due to the extensive time and cost involved. However, we will make every effort to ensure that donations intended for specific programs are used for those programs.
