A food drive is a great way to give back to the community and help out those in need. An easy way to collect substantially more food and other items is to make it a community driven event, and get your neighbors and friends involved.

Some community events that could include a food drive are:

• Park Events
• Youth Sporting Events
• National Night Out
• Picnics
• Church Events

Some Things To Keep In Mind

Having good organization will help you collect more items and get more people involved. Have a fliers ready with all the details ready in advance, consider creating a free email account for people to email if they have questions, and consider getting a co-sponsor that can help with getting the word out.
