5 Loaves & 2 Fish Food Drive
Thank you for your interest in holding a food drive for the Sojourner Truth House food pantry. Read our step-by-step plan to host your food drive!
Plan your drive.
Host an in-person food drive to benefit Sojourner Truth House. This method helps us identify new sources of food as the need increases.

To ensure that food is coming in regularly to the food pantry, we try to limit to one food drive delivery per week. Please look at our calendar to see to see available drop-off days. This will help you plan your food drive dates as well.
