Feed Our Neighbors in Need

The annual "Feed our Neighbors in Need" food drive is a community food drive led by The Faith Alliance.  Many local congregations collect food donations over a period of two weeks and then deliver the donations to a local food pantry of their choice.

On average, the food drive yields approximately 17,000 pounds of groceries helping to re-stock area food pantries in Butler, Warren and Hamilton Counties. Since the inception of the program in 2013, over 200,000 pounds of food has been donated.

In 2024, 14 church partners and 2 community partners (Butler County East YMCA and Northern Cincinnati Upward Sports) collected nearly 17,000 lbs. of food and personal care items for our neighbors in need, a 54% increase from 2023.  $1033 in cash donations was also collected.  Donations were distributed to 10 different area food pantries.  

In 2023, 15 church partners collected over 11,000 lbs. of food and toiletries  and $338 in cash donations for 9 area food pantries.

In 2022, over 22,000 lbs. of food/toiletries and $520 in cash donations was collected by 16 church partners which was donated to 13 different area food pantries.

In 2021, over 19,000 lbs. of food and $725 in cash donations was collected by 14 church partners which was donated to 10 different area food pantries.

THAT is the power of collaboration!
