More Ways to Give

This is an easy way to help our neighbors in need, and often you can double or even triple the impact.

Make a plan to ensure that all the families, seniors, and individuals in our community have the food they need to thrive. A planned gift is an investment in the future health and wellbeing of our community.

Donating stock and mutual fund shares are wonderful ways to support the Food Bank. Making a gift of securities is simple and offers a number of valuable financial benefits.
