CEAP IS GEARING UP FOR MARCH FOODSHARE

February 09, 2012

2012 March FoodShare Poster The biggest food drive in Minnesota is right around the corner!

March FoodShare is CEAP’s largest food-and-fund raising event of the year; every dollar or pound of food you give during the month earns CEAP a bonus from Minnesota FoodShare and the Feinstein Foundation. The more that’s donated, the bigger the bonus!

Interested in being a part of this? Here’s how you can help:

  • Donate food! We welcome all nonperishable food items at any of our three locations. We provide food donation ideas as well as hours and directions to our facilities.
  • Feeling ambitious? Host a food drive with your friends, family, and coworkers! We will supply gift forms, barrels, drop off and pick up services to anyone willing to host a drive. If you’re interested, please call 763-450-3664 to get started.
  • Make a monetary donation! With your $25.00 gift we can provide $125.00 worth of groceries to families in need through our network of suppliers. You can mail a donation to any of our offices or you can donate online! Click ‘donate’ at the top of this page. There you’ll find two different services available for online donating.
Last year our generous donors raised over 117,000 pounds of food and $157,800 for our neighbors in need. Without it, we could not serve the families who come to us to keep from going hungry. Please consider making a contribution. Spread the word about March FoodShare, and about CEAP’s services. You never know who may need a helping hand.
