Food Drives
Hosting a food drive is a great way to get involved in your community!
If you or your group is interested in hosting a food drive — or in collecting financial donations during a food drive — we are happy to help you make it a success. Please keep in mind that we can only accept unopened, unexpired food items. Fill out the form below to get started!
Prefer to do an online food drive instead? If you raise or donate $1, Lakeview Pantry provides 8 meals as we receive and purchase donations in bulk, allowing your dollars to go even farther. Click here to learn more
Start a Virtual Food Drive
A virtual food drive is an easy and fun online alternative to a traditional non-perishable food drive.
Because Lakeview Pantry is able to purchase 8 meals for every $1 we receive, by creating your own personal fundraising page and encouraging your friends and family to give, you can make a far greater impact than you would by collecting food on your own!
All funds raised in a virtual food drive support Lakeview Pantry’s general operating expenses. Click here to start yours today!
