Events That Happen Throughout The Year

  • MARCH CAMPAGIN

    The March Campaign is the largest food drive in Minnesota. MN FoodShare assists food shelves across the state to help stock their shelves and collect money to purchase food. Each food shelf collects food and monetary donations during the month of March. MN FoodShare will match a percentage of what each food shelf collects so your food and dollar donations go further. Why cash? We partner with Second Harvest Heartland and for every dollar donated, we can purchase $5.00 worth of food! The more we collect, the greater the percentage we receive.

  • PEOPLE'S PANTRY

    The Peoples Pantry is a free pre-packaged curb side food distribution on the third Wednesday of every month from 5pm-6:30pm. We distribute meats, dairy, dry goods, produce and more each month in our parking lot. Just show up and we will fill your vehicle with approximately xx pounds of food.
