Organize a fund and food drive

Donate Funds to Sanad Pantry

We are committed to ensuring that your contribution has the most significant impact possible. For every dollar donated, we can provide $5 worth of groceries because we harness local and national food donor relationships, secure substantial savings on produce and protein acquisitions, mobilize a volunteer team of 1,300 individuals, and collaborate closely with a robust network of community partners.

Make Your Fund and Food Drive Virtual and Raise More

Support Sanad Pantry more effectively without the additional effort that traditional food drives entail. While we wholeheartedly value every food item donated, fundraising grants us the flexibility to acquire food items that may be challenging to obtain through physical donations. With the generous collaboration of our local and national partners, we can make each donated dollar go a long way, translating it into $5 worth of groceries for our hungry neighbors in need. This approach ensures that those we assist have access to nutritious options, as we strive to allocate at least 70% of the food we provide toward fresh produce and high-protein essentials like dairy, meat, and peanut butter.
