Food drives make an even bigger impact when groups get involved. Rally coworkers, classmates, church members, friends, or neighbors, set a goal, and make it a friendly competition. Together, a few items can quickly become boxes of food for our neighbors. feedingal.org/food-fund-driv…

A little friendly competition can make a big impact. Food drives don’t have to be complicated. Add a theme, create teams, set a goal, and make it a competition. It’s a simple way to bring people together and make giving back even more engaging. Start here feedingal.org/food-fund-driv…
