Food Drive Day

Join Us on Saturday, August 2, for

#NourishOurOhana

1 in 4 Kaua‘i households is struggling with hunger. Join us during this critical time of need by donating to this year's Food Drive Day campaign.

Food Drive Day comes at a critical time. Amid shifting economic conditions and widespread funding cuts to food banks and safety net programs like SNAP, Hawai‘i Foodbank Kaua‘i is under immense pressure to help fill the gap.

With the cost of food, housing and health care out of reach for many members of our ‘ohana, demand for food assistance persists at historic levels. Hawai‘i Foodbank Kaua‘i continues to serve roughly twice the number of people we supported before the  pandemic.

Hawai‘i Foodbank is proactively working with its partners to advocate for funding solutions, strengthen local food systems, and ensure we can continue to meeting the growing need with dignity and compassion — but we need your help.

Your support on Food Drive Day will help ensure Hawai‘i Foodbank has the resources we need to help our families and neighbors thrive — no matter what.

There Are Three Easy Ways to Help:

Hawai‘i Foodbank Kaua‘i will stretch your dollars further to make an even bigger impact. Compared to going to the grocery store, a donation of just $25 can help provide food for more than 50 meals.
