Hold a food drive (non-perishable items) to help stock the pantry
A stocked pantry is often a welcome sight to families staying at a Ronald McDonald House or Ronald McDonald Family Room. For families experiencing economic hardship, not having to worry about meals or going to the grocery store can be a great relief.
To help keep pantries stocked, the American Farm Bureau organizes food drives during ‘Food Check-Out Week', held recently in February.
If you'd like to help stock the pantries, get in touch with your local Chapter or search VolunteerMatch to sign up for volunteer opportunities in your area.
