How It Works
EVERY 2 MONTHS—on the second Saturday of every even month—our Neighborhood Coordinators pick up bags of healthy nonperishable food that neighbors have left outside their front doors. They leave empty green bags for next time, and take all the food to local Food Providers. It’s that easy!

The Prescott Community Cupboard
The Prescott Valley Food Bank
The Chino Valley Hungry Kids Project
Mayer Hungry Kids Weekend Backpack program

As we grow, we will add other area food providers such as these.
We now have more than 60 Neighborhood Coordinators and more than 1,400 households regularly donating food.
