Donate Food

Help keep our shelves stocked!

Donating food is one way to support local food banks and programs while reducing food waste. Many food banks in the Feeding America network rely on food donations from people, businesses, and farmers.

With the increasing demand for food assistance and rising prices, we need your help more than ever.

How to donate food

When you donate food, you help the Feeding America network feed our neighbors facing hunger across the United States. Here are a few ways that individuals and companies can donate food.
