Host a Drive

Help your neighbor with the items they need most by conducting a drive for food, hygiene products, or clothing like socks, hats and gloves

As prices at the grocery store continue to rise, more families are turning to our pantries for help. We have an urgent need for our community to help us keep our pantry shelves stocked. Please consider hosting a Food Drive.

Hosting an Item Drive is a year-round way to make a difference in addressing poverty here in the Kansas City and St. Joseph area. Drives are a great way for schools, offices, community groups, and places of worship to join Catholic Charities ending hunger and making certain that families have life’s basic necessities.

Often, people come to us with an urgent need. We meet that urgent need first.

Then, we work to address the root causes of poverty. Your donations make an immediate impact in those lives.

Anytime you, or your company, can assist in collecting these urgent — ongoing — needs is helpful:

  • Non-perishable food items to stock more than 40 pantries and emergency assistance sites in urban and rural communities
  • Personal hygiene products including soap, toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant and razors
  • Paper goods like bathroom tissue and paper towels
  • Diapers, baby clothing, infant formula and other supplies
  • City bus passes
  • Gift cards to discount and grocery stores
  • Professional expertise like creative roles, legal services, education and training, culinary arts, moving and storage and carpentry
