Donating Food

Sponsoring a food drive at your office, church or synagogue, civic group, school, club, or neighborhood association is another great way to feed the hungry in Montgomery County. You can drop your food off at Manna Food Center Monday through Friday from 8am to 4pm. If it's a large amount (more than will fit in a minivan), call us and we may be able to arrange for one of our trucks to pick it up.

Peanut Butter Rice
