Create an online fundraiser

Celebrating a milestone? Want to find a way to have fun and support a great cause? Make a difference in your community by starting an online fundraiser. The key to a successful fundraiser is to share your story! Share the link to your fundraiser on social media, via email, or in person.

Host a food drive

Organizing a food drive is a fantastic way to educate the public about hunger while meeting an immediate need in your community. Food donated through food drives is used to pack and distribute our Emergency Food Boxes at our warehouses and to distribute to guests through our partner food pantries.

If you want to have an even greater impact, consider hosting a food and fund drive. This way, you’ll collect both financial contributions and food donations, helping more neighbors living with hunger.

Here are some resources to help you get started:
