Rally Your Community: Host an Item Drive

Engage your workplace, school, or other affinity group around a shared cause! Consider choosing an item type like books, coats, or canned goods, and organize the collection of like-new items of that kind. By donating those items to Second Harvest, your group can make affordable goods accessible to every household in our community.
