Monetary Donations Are Always Welcomed
As you know, the Fairfield Food Pantry values each and every gift that is made. However, our most critical need during this current economic crisis is monetary donations. The Pantry relies on these funds to be able to purchase discounted goods to provide to our customers. Every dollar counts! Here is a breakdown of how your donation can be spent:
For each $4 donated, we can feed a family of 2 for 3 days!
For each $10 donated, we can feed a family of five (5) for 3 days!
Imagine the possibilities with a $100 donation!
Many employers have a Gift Matching program to encourage donations such as this. These organizations will often match your gift to the Pantry. Turn that $100 into $200 with Gift Matching. Please inquire with your organization’s HR department for more information.
If you would prefer to mail or drop off a check, please make your check payable to Fairfield Food Pantry.
Mail or drop off at: The Fairfield Food Pantry, 78 Donald Drive, Fairfield, Ohio, 45014.

Help by: Having a Fundraiser
Fund Raisers may be conducted by community groups, organizations, family or neighborhood parties or athletic events. As an example, one group held a Super Bowl competition among the Fairfield Elementary Schools with the winning school receiving a visit from our high school football team to interact, tutor, and promote good behavior and academics. It was a win-win situation for the students, the team and The Fairfield Food Pantry. Have an idea?
Give us a call at 513-829-9047.
Help by: Conducting a Food Drive
The food that we receive is the food that we need the most, so we are looking at healthy, nutritious and nonperishable foods.
Food drives are really important — they help us provide food for our community members and help us provide the most nutritious and balanced food for them as well. You or your organization might consider organizing a Food Drive. If you need help, please reach out to us - we can definitely help you get started!
