Help us provide over 120,000 meals!

MARCH FOOD CAMPAIGN

It is time again for the March Food Campaign! Neighborhood House is joining with 260 organizations across Minnesota to raise a record 12 million pounds and dollars for the state’s food shelves.

Why 12 million pounds and dollars? Because food shelves across the state are experiencing a 25% increase in visits and seeing unprecedented numbers of first time visitors.  The goal for Neighborhood House is 160,000 pounds and dollars during the March campaign alone. That’s equivalent to over 120,000 meals and over one-quarter of the amount of food we distribute in a year.   Food shelf facts

All donations are welcome, but cash donations allow us to purchase more than four times as much food as you can buy at a store. Cash donations also allow us to balance our inventory to ensure that participants get a healthy variety of food.    See how far your cash can go!

There are so many ways you can help!

  • Donate on line at www.neighb.org.  
  • Send a check to Neighborhood House, 179 Robie Street East, Saint Paul, MN 55107, Attention: Kalue Her.
  • Donate food at Neighborhood House.    Food Wish List
  • Hold a food drive at work – it is a great way to build team morale and raise awareness of the hunger problem in the Twin Cities.  Food drive video
  • If you own or operate a business, offer your customers a discount if they donate food or cash to the Neighborhood House food shelf. These discounts are proven business generators!
  • Hold a party to raise money for the food shelf.  
  • Shop at Kowalski’s on Grand from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on March 13, 14, 26 and 27, buy some extra groceries, and give it to our wonderful volunteers collecting food at the store

"Neighborhood House believed in me when I was young and helped set my sights on a law enforcement career. Supported through the Constance Currie Scholarship award, I was able to attend college and realize my dreams of becoming a Saint Paul Police Officer."
