Current Needs

Food pantries across the country are facing two big challenges: more people need help, and government support is shrinking. The USDA has cut funding for key programs that helped food banks and schools buy fresh, local food, so we’re turning to our community for support. Together, we can make sure no one in our community goes hungry.

Here’s how you can help:

• Donate items from the list below.
• Donate money. Your dollars go further when we buy in bulk.
• Host a food drive. Rally your workplace, school, or neighborhood to collect non-perishable items.
• Volunteer your time. Help sort food, pack orders, or assist during pantry hours.
• Spread the word. Share this message to raise awareness.
