Host A Food Drive

If you would like to host, or have any additional ideas or questions about hosting a food drive, reach out to us by filling out the interest form!

Interested in holding a food drive? Single Is Simple! We have an idea for you – how about a Single Item Collection Drive? This would mean that you choose the item from below that we need you to collect and then pick the timeframe, select a date to drop off your items at the food bank! All Collection Drives must be communicated through this form and all items dropped off at the Franklin Food Bank by you or your group.

Right now we are asking the community to gather the following items...

Food Program needs:

  •  Cereal: Any kind of cereal, any size, must be in a box
  •  Rice: MUST be in 1lb or 2lb bags only
  • Pasta: Boxes 1lb or less
Diaper Program needs:
  • Diapers of all sizes
  • Baby Wipes
 
Women’s Period Products needs:
  • Tampons all sizes
  • Pads all sizes
  • Pantyliners all sizes
  • Women’s diapers all sizes
 
Collection Guidelines:
  • Items should be new
  • All items should not be damaged, opened, or expired
  • No glass
  • No fresh food
  • No frozen foods
Food Donation Drop Off Information
  • We accept donations during the following times:
    • Tuesday, Wednesday from 9am – 1pm
    • Monday, Thursday from 2 – 5 pm
  • Please enter on the delivery side of the building and pull as far back as possible, near the silver roll-up door. There will be a bin for donations outside.

Lastly, our biggest need is monetary donations as everything we purchase with our purchasing power and gleaning program triples your dollar! Yup, that means that every $1 you fundraise with an online Fund Drive becomes $3! Let us know if you’d like to set up for this during your food driveIt could look like this!

 

Once again – thank you so much for your past support and for any support you will be able to provide us this year. We are truly so grateful to this community for all of their contributions. Please let us know if there are any other questions we can answer for you!
