Elk Grove Food Bank Services

SOOOOO generous! Thank you Richard Bruns (l), owner/operator of Grocery Outlet, for the wonderful donation today presented to Warehouse Manager Bryan Lane (r)! It will help so many - and is VERY appreciated!

379 pounds of food was donated during the Camden Neighborhood Association, Elk Grove, CA's Holiday Decorating Contest that was held the 3 nights prior to Christmas last week! 275 pounds of that was from the collection spot at the Bartel residence. Thanks to all who helped make this possible - neighbors helping neighbors! It's what makes Elk Grove and Camden so special - truly a blessing!

Join Elk Grove's Vice Mayor Steve Detrick and newly-elected Councilmember Kevin Spease from 9 am to noon for our first Drive-thru Turkey and Trimmings Drop Off on Saturday, November 14, (rain or shine)! As we work to collect food for 1,000 families this year, know that all donations (big and small) matter and say, "We care" to our neighbors who are struggling. #grateful #community #wecare

Valley Oak Appliance Service Manager Tim Hawkins loaded 189 pounds of donations for those served by the Elk Grove Food Bank. We are grateful to the Hawkins family for their continued support and to their customers who contributed the much-needed food items. Thank you!

Thank you to Vice Mayor Steve Detrick for his generous donation to the Elk Grove Food Bank for this year's Turkey Drive! This will go a long way to help those in need this Thanksgiving.

To all those who have served, and those who continue to serve: THANK YOU! Thank you for your sacrifice, your bravery, and the example you have set for all of us.

Thank you ABC10 for sharing our plight.

Another THANK YOU to Larry Tran who made a delivery to the Elk Grove Food Bank from the Cistercian Monastery of our Lady of Grace and Father Peter Linhxuan Dat Vu. Today's generous donation was 801 pounds! #grateful

Helen Carr Castello Elementary School blew us away today by donating 1,110 pounds of food! This is usually the time of year that we're in the midst of the annual Kids Can Food Drive. Even though students are not yet back to school in person, and teachers and school staff are being faced with new challenges every single day, schools are still finding creative and generous ways to help those in their community. WOW! Can't tell you how very thankful we are! #grateful

THANK YOU to Boy Scout William Coates (left) for his "Flash Food Drive!" William distributed fliers in his neighborhood yesterday and collected food today - totaling 351 pounds. What a wonderful example of what a single person can do with a little help. In this case, the help was in the form of his dad, Bob (on the right), and all the generous neighbors who contributed. Thank you one and all! #grateful

Calling all turkeys! It's official - today we begin our Turkey and Trimmings Drive. Thanks to Vice Mayor @Steve Detrick for sponsoring this community effort again this year as we aim to provide 1,000 families with food for Thanksgiving. Plan now to join us for our first mobile drop-off on Saturday, November 14, from 9 am to noon.... #shareourblessings #grateful

Happy November! Help us make this Thanksgiving special for those who are struggling! #grateful

THANK YOU to all those in our community who have donated through these difficult times. More than 1,000,000 pounds of food have been distributed to new clients since March. #grateful
