2022 Food Drive Sign Up Form

Due to our emergency response efforts, our transportation bandwidth is at full capacity, and we can only drop off/pick-up food drive collections of 400 lbs. or more (minimum 3 full barrels) of food.

If you aren’t able to commit to completely filling at least 3 barrels, please consider collecting food in your own receptacles and dropping them off at one of our Food Drive Host drop-off locations. Thank you for your understanding and support!
