Donate Food

Food donations are a mainstay of the Food Bank, their value accounting for 52 percent of our public support in 2009. You might think the couple of cans of food you donate during a food drive doesn't amount to much, but you'd be wrong. Your gift could sustain a senior who has been saving money by skipping meals. Or it could help a child whose developing brain and body desperately need nourishing. We always need and welcome the following items:

• canned meats
• canned tuna
• meat based soups
• staples
• peanut butter
• canned fruits and juice
• canned vegetables
• frozen foods
• dairy products
• fresh produce
