It is easier than ever to provide food to the people at risk of hunger through online donations.

Food may be purchased online at Costco, Safeway, Peapod, or Amazon (or any other online retailer of choice) and delivered directly to your food bank of choice, such as the Capital Area Food Bank or a local food bank/pantry. 

When asked where you want your donation delivered, provide the address to the food bank of your choice (see example below). Additionally, your national capitol food bank is listed below if you would like to donate to that location.
