A Simple System That Really Works

EVERY 2 MONTHS——on the second Saturday of every even month—our Neighborhood Coordinators pick up bags of healthy nonperishable food that neighbors have left outside their front doors. They leave empty green bags for next time, and take all the food to Phoenix Community Center Pantry. It’s that easy! Sign up now!

Fight Hunger in Your Own Backyard

Be a Food Donor

It takes: 15 minutes a month

Your role: Fill a green bag with nonperishable food every two months and put it outside your front door. That’s all there is to it! 

Impact: One full green bag equals about ten meals. We combine your bag with your neighbors’ bags, and together we can feed the community!

Be a Neighborhood Coordinator

It takes: 1 hour a month

Your role: Pick up donors’ green bags every 2 months and take them to local food banks.

Impact: Each donor’s contribution averages 43 meals a year. With just 10 donors, you’ll provide a meal to a hungry neighbor every 30 seconds you volunteer!

Join the Support Team

It takes: Whatever time you choose

Your role: We’ve got lots big and small jobs to do! Help with anything from unloading bags of food to making phone calls to joining our Steering Committee.

Impact: In the Food Project, every job is essential. We’re an all-volunteer organization. We depend on people like you to keep us going.
