Many companies want to support the causes their employees care about, so they establish charitable giving programs through which they match employee donations to eligible nonprofits. Simply check with your employer’s Human Resources department at your place of employment, fill out your employer’s matching gift form and send it with your contribution.

Virtual Funds Drive

Host a Virtual Funds Drive (also known as a Virtual Food Drive) at your company or organization. Simple and secure, a virtual funds drive is an interactive tool that makes your donation to Food Bank for the Heartland go further. The Food Bank will use the funds to purchase food items that are most needed, including fruits, vegetables, and perishable items such as meat and dairy products.

For every dollar donated to the Food Bank, we can provide three meals. With the Food Bank’s purchasing power and network of wholesale, retail and agricultural donors, we are able to do much more with a monetary donation.

If you have any questions, please contact Jerlyn Swiatlowski.
