Schools, smaller Churches, Teams, Scouts, Businesses and more organize food drives to drop off to us. We use the food to supplement larger families, help with the weekend food Back Pack Program, upcoming Christmas Programs and local Food Pantries.
Churches, Businesses and Groups display tags that represent local families that have called for help. 2024 Tags are asking for enough food to feed a Family of Four and and will check mark if you are to bring a Frozen Turkey or packs of Ham Slices. The back of the tag gives suggestions of food to purchase, and where and when to drop off your donation!
While we do not actively fund raise (we exchange food!) we do accept grocery gift cards, checks or cash. These monetary gifts are used for bread, electricity, porta-potty, but, mostly an extra donation to the largest families....a bag filled with household and personal items. We do not have 501 (c) (3) status.
2024 WORK WEEK is Tuesday, November 18, through Friday, November 22. We sort food drive items, receive and organize family tag donations, and prep for deliveries. Saturday, November 23, teams of individuals and families fill up their vehicles and deliver while others, do check outs and work outside with the Turkey Truck Team. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090D48ACAC23A75-51387932-2024
The Monday after Thanksgiving, we begin the packing up and organizing leftovers to be distributed.
