Virtual Food Drive
Family Virtual Food DriveFor over 10 years, Hand Up Project has been feeding the family through dignity-centered, community-rooted food access.As Oregon's only LGBTQ2SIA+ formed and led public food assistance program open to everyone, we provide healthy, culturally relevant food in a welcoming environment where dignity, choice, and community come first. Every dollar donated through this Virtual Food Drive helps keep pantry shelves stocked, supports our Food as Medicine approach, and ensures neighbors can continue accessing affirming food assistance when they need it most. Why Virtual Food Drives WorkAs a partner agency of the Oregon Food Bank, Hand Up Project can often purchase food for less than retail prices, allowing your donation to go further. Your gift helps us:✅ Purchase fresh produce, proteins, and staple foods✅ Fill gaps when donated food supplies run low✅ Respond quickly to rising food costs and supply disruptions✅ Purchase culturally relevant foods our community needsInstead of guessing what food to donate, your contribution allows us to buy exactly what is needed, when it is needed.Help Us Hold the LineFood assistance programs across the country are facing funding instability, reduced food supply streams, and rising costs. At the same time, more families are turning to community food programs for support. Your donation helps sustain:• A Queer-led public food pantry open to all• Choice-based, culturally affirming food access• Food as Medicine nutrition initiatives• A trusted community hub built on dignity, not judgment• Essential food infrastructure serving thousands of community members each yearOnce trusted community infrastructure is lost, it is incredibly difficult to rebuild. Your support helps ensure it remains available for everyone who depends on it. Want to make an even bigger impact?
