School Break Food Drive
Help Students with Stability and Food Security During School Breaks.
School breaks are often seen as a time for rest, but for many of our students, they also mean a break from the stability of daily on-campus meals. To ensure no student goes hungry during school breaks, Robyne’s Nest is hosting School Break Food Drives to bridge the gap and provide essential nourishment.
Spring Break: March 16-March 23
Winter Break: October 11-December 2
Each year, local community organizations partner with us by hosting their own food drives, using our flyer to list the most-needed items. Once collected, donations are delivered to Robyne’s Nest, where our team assembles food bags filled with nutritious essentials. These bags are then distributed to students, ensuring they have access to food for themselves and their families whenever school is out of session.
Your support makes all the difference. Whether you’re an organization ready to host a food drive or a community member who wants to contribute, together we can ensure that no student goes hungry when school is out.
How You Can Make a Difference:
Host a Group Drive: Get your office, church, or neighborhood involved! It’s a powerful way to build community while filling our shelves.
Drop Off Individual Items: You don’t need to assemble a full bag. We welcome individual pantry staples (easy-to-prepare meals, snacks, and proteins) from the list below at our office.
No Assembly Required: Just bring the items, our volunteers will handle the rest!
