Food Banks
Help hungry families

We're all feeling the pinch of rising costs for fuel and food. Some families have to make tough choices between things like paying the rent, covering the utility bill and feeding the kids. These are the kinds of stresses that can push a family to the brink—and in the worst cases into homelessness. You can help. Buy a bag of groceries and donate it to your local food bank.

Buy one or more of these items and donate it to your local food bank:

  • Pasta
  • Rice
  • Red beans, black beans, lentils, refried beans (canned or dry)
  • Canned tuna fish
  • Peanut butter
  • Canned fruits and vegetables
  • Canned soup
  • Infant formula (Enfamil preferred)
  • Baby food (no glass containers)
  • Macaroni and cheese
