Welcome to PopupFoodDrive.org!
PopupFoodDrive was founded to give people the training and tools necessary to host their own food drive at a time and place convenient to them, their friends, or their affinity group. The goal is to increase awareness, donations, and expose people to volunteering opportunities at Food Charities.
There are so many ways to help. It can be as simple participating in a Popup Food Drive created by another volunteer in the community or – if you're feeling a little ambitious – you can start your own Popup Food Drive and encourage others to help. Either way...
You're just one click away from helping.
How to Participate in a Popup Food Drive
Donate
Everybody deserves to have enough food to eat. Donating food benefits the community and is easy to do. To donate, look at the calendar to find an upcoming event.
Volunteer
Volunteering time helps the food bank with their activities and counts for community service hours. To volunteer for an event, look at the calendar to find an upcoming event.
Start
With PopupFoodDrive.org, starting your own food drive is easy. If you would like to run an event for the food bank, and make a positive impact on the community, then get started today.
