Host a Food & Fund Drive

Thank you so much for your interest in helping our hungry neighbors in need by hosting a food drive! Every can, box, and bag of food you collect makes a meaningful difference for families across Western New York. Please fill out the form here and we will contact you shortly.

Getting started is simple. Choose the option that works best for you:

DIY Food Drive

Perfect for community groups and individuals who want to take the lead! You can use your own sturdy boxes, bins, or totes to collect donations.

When your food drive is finished, deliver your items directly to our warehouse at 91 Holt Street, Buffalo, NY 14206. Drop-off hours: Monday–Friday, 9 a.m.–4 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.–12 p.m.

When you arrive, please call 716-852-1305 and a member of our team will be happy to assist you.

Collection Barrel Drive (collections of 250 lbs. +)

Ideal for schools, offices, and organizations seeking to make a lasting impact!

If you’re planning a large drive and expect to collect at least 250 pounds of donations, FeedMore WNY can provide a collection barrel for your site. We’ll deliver it and schedule a pick-up once your drive is complete.

To request a barrel, answer a few quick questions here so we can coordinate the details.

Whether you choose a DIY Drive or a Collection Barrel Drive, your efforts bring hope and nourishment to thousands of families across Western New York. We are so grateful for your support!

Please reach out to our Community Engagement and Event Specialist, Betsy Campbell, at bcampbell@feedmorewny.org for any other questions you may have.

If you are requesting a delivery or pick-up, we ask that you commit to collecting a minimum of 250 pounds (approximately one full barrel). Fuel is expensive and it is important that we dedicate the FeedMore WNY's resources to purchasing more food and do not off-set the effort of your collection. Do you anticipate collecting over 250 pounds of food?
- Yes
- No
*Please note that food drives under 250 pounds are greatly appreciated and the FeedMore WNY will accept walk-in donations in any amount at the 91 Holt St facility Monday-Friday 8am-4pm or Saturdays 9am-12pm.

I understand that FeedMore WNY needs to know if I am using their logo to create promotional flyers or communications for my drive. If I would like to use the logo, I understand that I need to create a draft and submit it to a FeedMore WNY representative. I would like to request usage of the FeedMore WNY logo.*
