Please Donate

Turn every $1 into $7.

Stretch Your Donation


Because of our partnerships and resources, we can purchase $7 of food with every $1 donation we receive.  So, if you give us:

  • $25, we can purchase $175 worth of food
  • $50 = $350
  • $100 = $700
  • $1,000 = $7,000
  • $5,000 = $35,000
  • $10,000 = $70,000 

Donation

One time or recurring.

We rely solely on individual donations, non-governmental grants, and private corporate gifts.


Your gifts, both large and small, enable us to feed our neighbors, fight hunger in our community, and meet people's most basic and essential needs. Please consider making a one-time donation or a monthly, recurring gift.   We work hard to keep our overhead very low, and put every dollar to use in providing food and other goods to our Walworth County guests.

Legacy Giving

LEARN MORE

At some point in time, we all start thinking about our legacy and what kind of lasting impact our lives will make on our community and the world we live in.

We appreciate every donation.  Here are a few wish list items and tips.

Things we need most:


  • Canned fruit
  • Canned tuna, ham, or chicken
  • Canned soup
  • Mac and Cheese
  • Canned spaghetti sauce
  • Pasta
  • Non-sugary cereal
  • Crackers
  • Peanut Butter
  • Laundry detergent (powder preferred)
  • Laundry stain remover
  • Full size toothpaste
  • Diapers size 6 and 7
  • Tampons
  • Feminine hygiene pads
  • Incontinence products size XL (adult diapers)
  • Hamburger meat

Shopping Tips:


  • Cans & boxes are best whenever possible.  Bags & glass jars can break.


  • Think smaller packages.  If you can get two 12-ounce jars of peanut butter for the same price as one 30-ounce jar, we'd rather have the two.  Although you may be giving less in weight, pantries would rather distribute a little to everyone who needs it, rather than a lot to some, and none to others.


  • Don't worry about variety.  If you'd like to give a dozen or more of one staple item, that works well for us.  Again, having something to give to everyone who needs it is most important.


  • Please don’t donate expired items.  We appreciate the thought, but the safety of our guests and the food we deliver them is our first concern.
