Shop, Pay and Feed Just One.
The Virtual Food Drive is FUN, and EASY to use.
$5.40 feeds a family of four for one week, how many families do you want to feed this week? Feeding the hungry is as simple as a mouse click. Minnie ’s Food Pantry is a member of the North Texas Food Bank that means we pay a shared maintenance of $0.14 per pound for groceries received from the North Texas Food Bank. With our efficiency and purchasing power, we can stretch $1 into $5 worth of food.

The virtual food drive also allows us to lower our costs because there are no transportation costs or volunteer hours needed The “Virtual Food Drive” concept is also great for businesses and organizations wanting to participate in food drive activities. Collect the money for the goods that are needed rather than having coworkers bring in food from home and then has to be transported to the Food Bank.

With the “Minnie’s Food Pantry Virtual Food Drive”, you can set up a competition between departments, divisions, locations, or individuals. This secure website allows you to select foods of certain cash values and add them to a shopping cart. Once your cart is full, proceed to the virtual checkout and pay with a credit card. It’s that easy and it’s just like shopping online!

We receive your donation and we do the shopping for you! A tax receipt is generated immediately upon purchase. There are advantages to donating via the virtual food drive over a traditional food drive:

1. The money donated through the “Virtual Food Drive” is tax-deductible and easier to figure out at tax time. Not to mention that you don’t have to make an extra trip to the store in order to participate in a food drive!

2. The dollars donated are worth more because we can save money through special partnerships with large food donors and by buying food items in bulk.

3. The donations go towards purchasing the foods that traditional food drives don’t bring in, such as perishable items like fresh produce, meats, and breads.

4. We encourage you to help the hungry in our community by donating through our “Virtual Food Drive”. You may never go back to the traditional food drive again!
