Ready to engage in Hunger Relief? Here are a few ideas to get you started!

• Encourage a company-wide brown bag lunch day where employees bring their lunch instead of eating out. Donate money typically spent eating out.
• Offer employees a jeans day or casual day in exchange for a financial donation.
• Raise funds by holding a raffle of donated items from local restaurants and businesses.
• Set up a bulletin board, an intranet page, or a blog to raise funds.
• Lead up to your event with a contest to see who in your company or department can raise the most in donations. As an employer, match the employees’ donations.
• Allow employees paid time off to volunteer at the Food Bank Warehouse sorting incoming food donations.
• Participate in Serving U, a corporate team building course conducted at the Food Bank’s distribution facility.
