Donate Food. Nourish Our Neighbors.
Food donations help the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank provide fresh produce, healthy proteins, dairy and other nutritious foods to neighbors throughout central Pennsylvania. Whether you represent a food business, farm or community group, there are ways to put good food to good use.
Food With A Purpose
Good Food Belongs on Tables, Not in Landfills.
Through partnerships with farms, food producers, retailers and other organizations, the Food Bank rescues and distributes millions of pounds of nutritious food each year. These donations help strengthen the supply of fresh and healthy foods available through our network of community partners.
Food Industry Donations
For farms, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, food service companies and other organizations with larger quantities of wholesome food.
Community Food Donations
Have a smaller amount of wholesome food to donate? Food may be dropped off at our Harrisburg or Williamsport Healthy Food Hubs following our donation guidelines.
Homegrown Produce
Grow extra fruits, vegetables or herbs? Through Adopt a Pantry, gardeners can share homegrown produce with participating local food pantries.
An Easier Way To Give
Planning a Food Drive? Go Virtual.
A Virtual Food Drive gives your company, school, organization or community a simple way to support the Food Bank without collecting or transporting physical food. Participants can “shop” online while their contributions give the Food Bank flexibility to source the foods our neighbors need most.
Food Sourcing Partnerships
Programs That Bring More Food to Our Communities
The Food Bank works with agricultural partners, government programs, food businesses and community organizations to expand the supply of nutritious food available across central Pennsylvania.
