Friday, December 8th, 2023!!

Join us!! Here’s how!

1. Choose to Feed-A-Friend! Make the commitment to collect non-perishable food items and monetary donations to support New Hope Ministries, or sign up your business or organization to sponsor Feed-A-Friend.
2. Schedule a day, week, or month to hold your very own Feed-A-Friend event.  Start your own food drive to suit your schedule.
3. Set a goal! Fill up a certain number of boxes and raise a special amount of money.  $20 will feed a family of four for one week at New Hope Ministries.
4. Let us know what you need to be successful. Below, you will find posters and signs you can download and print, food list flyers, and an online donation platform to help you raise money – here you can create your very own personal page for your event!    

What is the difference between Feed-A-Friend and a food drive?

The Feed-A-Friend initiative stands out for its innovative approach of combining both food and monetary donations. Unlike regular food drives that only collect food items, the Feed-A-Friend program welcomes monetary contributions in addition to food donations. This enables you to make a more impactful contribution toward our mission, and it can make a significant difference in the lives of the individuals we assist.

Go Big!  Don’t be shy about posting and sharing your updates on your event! Make sure to send updates about your goal and how others can get involved.  Remember to thank your supporters and share your results!

For Feed-A-Friend events only, we have food collection boxes for you to use! What a great way to showcase your event and collect items. The boxes are 18x18x30″.  These boxes can be used only in conjunction with fundraising efforts via our Feed-A-Friend model.  If you are having a food drive only (and no monetary collection) then please utilize your own boxes/containers. Have fun – decorate them with a fun theme or company logo … or feel free to call your nearest New Hope Center to see if they have spare boxes. Thanks!!

If you would like to print the 11×17″ Feed-A-Friend sign for the box, please click here!
