In order to meet the rising demand for food support, HQB has created a calendar of food drives for 2012. The calendar allows us to meet our various needs throughout the year — from fruits and vegetables in January to noodles in December.
Businesses, schools, churches, and other groups that commit to holding a food drive on a given month will receive a Food Drive Toolkit. The Toolkit includes a variety of marketing materials, such as food shelf photos, newsletter blurbs, and a flyer. In addition, we will provide collection bins for the drive and pick them up at the end of the month.
The Calendar of Drives is as follows:
January Fruits and vegetables
February Basics/Breakfast
March March Campaign food drive
April Personal care and household items
May Canned goods
June Noodles
July Protein
August Rice
September Sauces
October Personal care and household items
November Canned goods
December Noodles
For details on adopting a month, contact our Development Coordinator by phone (651-224-4601) or email (jgrinolds@hallieqbrown.org). If you have other ideas as to how to support our work, please do not hesitate to share them.
