Join the Challenge!
We’re frequently asked what our most needed items are (thank you). This was the inspiration for our monthly pantry challenges, and thanks to you, they’ve been wildly successful. Our pantry challenges focus on our most needed items, things we’re low on—and we’re always happily overwhelmed by the response.
Each month, we put the call out for a particular food or other essential to fill our pantry shelves. We hope you’ll will be part of our monthly challenges to help support the nearly 900 families we serve monthly. Here’s what’s coming up for the year (subject to change based on need).
May Challenge: Allergy-Friendly Foods
This month, we’re collecting allergy-friendly foods as part of our Food For All program. More than 32 million Americans, including at least 6 million children, must avoid certain foods to maintain their health due to food allergies or other medical conditions. Help us stock the pantry with food that ensures all pantry guests have access to food they can and want to eat.
- January: Canned Tuna & Chicken
- February: Hearty soups
- March: Toilet paper
- April: Dried beans (black, kidney, garbanzo, navy)
- May: Allergy-friendly foods
- June: Diapers, baby food, formula
- July: Peanut butter (and nut butters)
- August: Hygiene products & toilet paper
- September: Sauces & condiments
- October: Soups & chilis
- November: Baking essentials
- December: Hot beverages
