Ways to Help
Food Drives &
Fundraisers
Your efforts in organizing food drives or fundraisers are critical to helping us meet the needs of over 11,000 people in our community each month. By planning and managing your event, you play a direct role in combating food insecurity in the Central Okanagan.
Food Drives
Food drives raise awareness and provide vital food resources to our community. Healthy Food Donations are always needed to help ensure we continue supporting those in need. Please plan ahead and collect the items on our “Most Needed Items” list.
Fundraisers
Monetary donations allow us to multiply your impact. Through partnerships with food retailers, every $1 you donate turns into up to $3 worth of food!
How to Register Your Event
Our registration process helps us support your efforts more effectively, especially during busy seasons like Christmas when our resources are stretched. Please complete your registration thoroughly to avoid delays or errors.
- Register Your Event: Notify us about your food drive or fundraiser so we can anticipate your donation.
- Add Event to the Community Calendar: This optional step promotes your event to the broader community, helping you attract more donors.
