Become a Food Donation Drop-Off Location
Thank you for your interest in helping us ensure that families in DeKalb County have access to nutritious food this November as part of the DeKalb County Hunger Relief Response! We are looking for local organizations, businesses, and community spaces to serve as official donation drop-off points in each town in DeKalb County.
Here’s how it works:
-
You’ll provide a designated area in your building for donors to drop off food items.
-
You tell us your drop-off hours, and we will coordinate our weekly pickup to deliver donations to local food pantries or coordinate for the pantry itself to pick up the food.
-
We ask that you commit to collecting donations throughout November. At the end of the month, we’ll reassess to see if ongoing participation is needed.
-
Our focus is on shelf-stable foods for food banks, while fresh items will be encouraged at community pantries.
By completing the form below, your organization will be added to our official drop-off network.
Thank you for helping us coordinate logistics, track donations, and ensure a smooth experience for donors and families alike.
Join the Coalition
The Hunger Relief Coalition will bring together community members, nonprofits, churches, schools, pantries, service providers, and community members who are ready to respond in real time to rapidly changing hunger needs in DeKalb County.
Instead of working in silos, we’re sharing information, coordinating efforts, and communicating urgent needs as they arise so families can get help faster.
We don’t have a meeting date set yet, but if you’d like to be part of the first gathering and receive updates, sign up below and we’ll make sure you’re included in the invitation.
