Host A Food Drive


Whether you collect food with our blue barrels or host a virtual food drive, you’ll help stock our Free Food Markets with the nutritious groceries local families need most.

Host a Food Barrel Drive

Hosting a food drive? Sunshine Division can provide a food barrel for your business, school, organization or community event.

Use our online scheduler to reserve a barrel delivery, pickup or swap. Each service requires its own reservation.

Before You Schedule

  • Barrel service is available Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
  • Please plan to keep your barrel for no longer than two weeks.
  • Barrel delivery is available within a 20-mile radius of Sunshine Division. We are unable to deliver barrels to areas outside this range, including Woodburn and Newberg.
  • Please donate shelf-stable, unexpired food items only.
  • Please do not donate clothing or alcohol.
  • In addition to food, we gladly accept useful household essentials such as toiletries, laundry detergent and cleaning supplies.

After booking, you’ll receive automated confirmation and reminder emails.

Need help planning your food drive? Download our Food Drive Toolkit for tips, suggested donation items and other resources.

If you don’t hear from us within 24 hours or requesting a food barrel dropoff, pickup, or swap, please send us an email! 

Host a Virtual Food Drive

A #GiveHealthy Food Drive lets friends, coworkers, classmates, or neighbors donate the exact food items Sunshine Division needs with just a few clicks.

Instead of collecting cans and shelf-stable goods, supporters simply shop from a curated list of healthy groceries, including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry staples.

Once your #GiveHealthy Food Drive ends, the donated food is delivered directly to Sunshine Division, ready to help local families experiencing food insecurity.

Ready to get started? Create your #GiveHealthy Food Drive today and help provide healthy groceries to neighbors in need.
