Food Donation Policy
If your class, club, church or other organization would like to conduct a food drive to help us fill our food boxes, here is a list of foods that we would love to have more of. These items are all nutritious, family friendly and can help stretch the family meal plan when food is scarce.
Canned or packaged tuna fish
Peanut butter (and jelly)
Canned soups
Packaged pasta
Tomato sauce (cans or plastic jars, no glass jars please)
Mac’n cheese
Packaged rice mixes
Beans (dry or canned)
Cereal (low sugar please)
Not to eat, but always needed – diapers, especially sizes 4, 5, and 6.
Let us know if you plan to do a food drive, and we can tell you what we need the most and even give you some suggestions on how to organize the drive and make it fun!
If you want to help Martin’s House and Barn emergency food program, but aren’t interested in conducting a food drive, go to the donate button on our web site and indicate EF in the purpose area. Donations will be used for purchases from the Maryland Food Bank or to support the overhead costs of our food program.
