Virtual Food Drive!

Feeding the hungry is now just one click away. The virtual food drive may be easier for you than a shopping trip, and we are able to purchase exactly the food items we need. Because of our ability to purchase in large quantities with deep discounts, donating online will stretch your donation dollar. For every dollar you donate, we are able to supply a family with $8 worth of food. Tell your friends and family about the Food Bank for Monterey County’s Virtual Food Drive!
