Three Simple Ways To Help
Donations
You can donate non-perishable items anytime by placing items into our blue wooden bin outside the Food Bank entrance. For perishable goods, please drop off during our open hours. You can also sign up for our A Simple Gesture (ASG) program.
Volunteering
One of the easy ways to help alleviate hunger in our community is by volunteering. We need help within the Food Bank, the Thrift Store, and our Youth Programs. Your time and support make a difference and help us shape our community into a kinder and better place for individuals and families in need.
Events
Stanwood Camano Foodbank Services put together events for the purpose of raising food, funds, or both. We hold these events all throughout the year. With your active participation, we are able to lend a hand to those who need it most.
Grants and Community
