Why healthy food matters.
The numbers tell the story …
High rates of food insecurity and high rates of diet related health issues are no joke. They’re no coincidence, either. You are what you eat. If you are struggling with hunger, you eat what’s available. You eat what’s been donated.

How it works.
The #GiveHealthy digital food drive platform makes sponsoring a food drive a breeze and makes it super easy for people to donate the right kind of food.
Donate by purchasing curated healthy food items via a standard e-commerce transaction. After a #GiveHealthy drive is over, your donation gets delivered directly to your favorite food bank or food pantry.
Are you a company, a school, a civic or faith-based organization? A team? You can sponsor your own #GiveHealthy drive to support your local food bank or pantry.
