You Can Host a Food Drive to Help End Hunger

We are all about tackling life’s challenges head-on, never backing down when things get tough. Last year, our awesome volunteers worked 40,351 hours to help feed thousands in our neighborhood. But they couldn’t have done it without folks like you who believe in lending a hand.

You can pitch-in by organizing a food drive in your neighborhood, prayer group, workplace, book club, or even with your bowling crew or pickleball team. Anywhere you connect with others is the perfect starting point to doing good.

Donations come in every size and shape, from a truckload to a trunk full and each one is a shining example of our community’s generosity.

Here’s all you need to know!

Make a Plan

Choose your dates and decide how you’ll gather the food. Drop us a message to let us know about your food drive, and if you provide the details, we’ll try our best to promote it on our Facebook and Instagram page.

Promote

Spread the word through flyers, email, personal social media posts. We’ve included a few options on the resources tab that includes

  • Customizable flyers
  • Wish List
  • Bag Stuffer
  • Logos
  • Newsletter Notice (great for churches and HOAs, etc.)
  • Spring 2024 Purge Your Pantry campaign flyer

Deliver the Goods

Drop off your food drive donations at the food bank in Cave Creek or call us for a pickup (minimums apply). We accept food donations Monday – Friday, from 8am to 2pm, and on Saturday by appointment.

Our dedicated volunteers will weigh, sort and inventory your donation and quickly distribute it to those in need.

On behalf of our entire team,  thank you for joining the Foothills Food Bank & Resource Center as a Hunger Heroes. 

If you have specific questions, we’re here for you!
