Coordinating a food or fund drive is an exciting opportunity for local businesses, schools, churches, and clubs to work together to help our community. Food and fund drives are critical in feeding neighbors in need across 29 counties. Donated food is quickly inspected and distributed through our network of feeding partners to individuals and families in need. Donated funds help pay for healthy fresh food and hunger-relief programs.
Whether you host a food drive, a fund drive, or a combination of both is up to you! Choose the best “fit” for your group.
Encourage members of your group to collect nonperishable food items to donate to the food bank. It can be a one-day event or take place for any length of time, typically a week or two. Collect donations via boxes, receptacles of your choosing, or High Plains Food Bank barrels
Fund Drives are the most efficient and versatile way to support our mission. With every $1 donated, we can provide about 4 meals to local neighbors facing food insecurity. Plus, $0.95 of every dollar goes directly to food and feeding programs. Fund drives are often held in conjunction with traditional food drives, giving participants the choice to bring food or a cash donation.
The Food & Fund Drive Kit provides easy-to-follow instructions for starting and managing your drive, as well as useful hints, tips and information.
We are here to help! If you have any questions along the way, please contact Tina Brohlin at tina@hpfb.org or 806.350.1435.

Large and sturdy, our barrels are best for drives collecting more than 500 pounds of food donations. Barrels can be picked up at our warehouse or scheduled for delivery in Amarillo/Canyon. HPFB barrels are re-used, so please refrain from permanently altering the barrels in any way. Please note: Due to their large size and weight, filled barrels are difficult to transport without a large vehicle or lift-gate truck.
