Overview of Events

We’re pretty busy with the daily rescue of 4 tons of food, but we do manage to hold a few special events to help fight hunger in our community:

Grillin' for Food Gatherers

Grillin' for Food GatherersOur annual fundraiser picnic - This community celebration that helps fight hunger where we live, is always held the second Sunday in June. Great food from area restaurants, grilled chicken, gourmet sausages, vegetables and delicious desserts. Kid’s games, live music, a food-inspired silent auction, beer and wine – it’s the best party of the year!

Rockin' for the Hungry

This is our largest outdoor canned food drive, held for a week in the beginning of December, at Busch’s Grocery Store on Main Street. Live broadcasts from Ann Arbor's 107one FM throughout the event encourage food donations to achieve our goal of 107 tons of food. Friendly food drive competitions between businesses and schools add to the fun, with volunteers from numerous organizations spreading cheer and the spirit of giving during the holiday season.
