How can you help?

Can you donate 1 hour a month?

The Elgin Food Bank can use your help in various positions. Do you live outside of Elgin then perhaps you can call one of sponsors to see if they need help.

The next time you make a trip to the grocery store you can purchase 1 or 2 items and place them in the donation box. In Elgin you can donate to the Elgin Food Bank at Gordanier Freshmart. Just ask the cashier for assistance.

Look in your cupboards and see what non perishable products you can donate to the Elgin Food Bank or your local food bank. Please check the expiration date.

Do you have a jar full of pennies, why not donate it to the Elgin Food Bank and show your support.

Donating them is a great idea and you will be helping someone at the same time.

Christmas Toy Drive

Can you donate a new toy for a little girl or boy? Many of our community children receive nothing or very little for Christmas. The Elgin Food Bank will provide a Christmas supper but a gift for a child brings a smile. Please help if you can.

Can you help a neighbor by providing a hot or cold meal at least once a day. Many seniors and single people on fixed incomes can't afford to eat or eat properly and nutritiously. If you can please call us to register.
