Description
Food Outreach is launching its very first VIRTUAL canned food drive. Each year, Food Outreach raises more than 70,000 canned food items through holiday drives. Due to COVID-19, Food Outreach has suspended in-person canned food drives and has gone virtual. Help Food Outreach raise more than 50,000 cans between November 1- December 31. We will have weekly challenegs with fabulous prizes for the teams or individuals who raise the most cans. Likewise, there will be three grand prizes for the teams of indivduals who raise the most cans over the course of the event.
Since March, Food Outreach has provided more than 250,000 pounds of food to 1,500 men, women and children who are battling hunger and chronic illness during the pandemic.
