The Food Drive Kids will continue their fight against childhood hunger in 2021 with their first-ever drive-through food drive. Since Covid-19 is still making it hard for us to get back to our normal food drive we are doing things a bit differently again this year.

WHAT: Drive-Through Food Drive, where you can bring your donations of food to help our fight against childhood hunger. Click here for a list of things to purchase. We will be collecting food for Backpack Buddies as well as food and toiletries for our network of Little Free Pantries. We will also be giving T-Shirts away to those that make monetary donations of $25 or more! (A preview of the shirt will be coming soon!)

WHEN: Saturday, April 17 from 10-4 and Sunday, April 18 from 12-4

WHERE: Western Boulevard Presbyterian Church Parking Lot, 4900 Kaplan Drive Raleigh, NC 27606

HOW: Come by during the hours above to drop off your food and/or monetary donations (you can even get a t-shirt while you are there), or fill out the form below to donate online and we will mail you your t-shirt!

Educating the community about the prevalence of childhood hunger and the consequesnces of it on kids in their own schools and communities is crucial. We are dedicated to speaking to anyone that will listen about this issue and giving them opportunities to learn about it and to make a difference. Every event we have serves as an opportunity to educate people about this issue and how anyone can make a difference. If you would like to have The Food Drive Kids speak to your group contact us.

We work to promote the implementation of sustainable hunger relief like community gardens. This gives those at risk of hunger the ability to provide healthy fruits and vegetables for their families. Check out Whats Going On to fina a chance to vounteer.

Emergency Hunger Relief is especially important, especially to kids from food insecure homes. This allows kids to receive cruical food to help feed them on a day to day basis. These programs are driven by volunteer support and donations from things like food drives. Programs that help provide Emergency hunger relief are things such as Backpack Buddies that sends home backpacks full of food to feed kids on the weekend when they aren’t at school.
