Food Drives are an essential source of food for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. The National Association of Letter Carriers Food Drive in May, The Summer Food Drive in July and August and the Scouting for Food drive in the Fall are the three largest drives of the year.

Supplementing these efforts are hundreds of smaller campaigns held at businesses, schools and organizations throughout the state. The Food Bank is so grateful for such initiatives, as it relies heavily on food donations to distribute much needed food to struggling Rhode Islanders.

Here’s some information to help you get started on your food drive!

With rising Transportation costs making our ability to acquire food difficult, we appreciate your ability to coordinate delivery of your food collection to our facility.
