October is National Apple Month, a perfect time to celebrate healthy eating, give back to your community, and kick off the busy fall food drive season. Apples are a symbol of health and nourishment, making them the perfect focus for encouraging healthy food drive donations this month.
We’re excited to add another resource for Food Banks and Pantries to leverage their food drive support, the National Apple Month Food Drive Toolkit consists of resources and food drive ideas that make it simple to engage groups, companies, schools, and community members in supporting your organization.
What’s inside the toolkit?
Our Apple Drive Toolkit is designed to help organizations promote and organize successful community food drives. Inside, you’ll find:
- Ready-to-use promotional materials for hosting Apple Drives
- Messaging that emphasizes healthy giving, highlighting nutritious food donations
- Creative ideas for engaging sponsors, workplaces, schools, and local organizations
Whether you’re building on existing food drive efforts or looking for fresh ways to start new drives, this toolkit will help you generate more support and bring in healthy food donations during National Apple Month.
Why host an Apple Drive?
Fall is one of the most active food drive seasons of the year. By aligning your efforts with National Apple Month, you can:
- Inspire healthy food donations in your community
- Encourage local businesses and groups to give back
- Strengthen your network of supporters for future drive
You can access the toolkit below or visit the Marketing Kit page on our website to start planning your Apple Drive. Together, we can celebrate National Apple Month by bringing more fresh, healthy food to the people who need it most.
We’re working on more resources to add for use during this food drive season, and beyond – so stay tuned!
