A work environment is a great place to hold a food drive. Whether your company is small or large, these tips will help you maximize your donations.
Come up with a catchy name
A catchy name or slogan will draw people’s attention and is more likely to stay in their brain.
Make it easy
People are busy at work, so don’t make them go out of their way. Put boxes in common areas so it’s easy and accessible for people to make a donation.
Provide a statistic
Many people may be unaware of the issue of hunger in their community. A statistic on a poster or in an e-mail will emphasize the importance of the cause and motivate people to donate.
Send e-mails
Send e-mails to everyone in your company throughout the length of the drive to remind them and keep it in the front of their mind.
Give incentives
Giving incentives will generate more interest among workers to donate. For example, everyone who brings in a can of food can wear jeans that day.
So what are you waiting for? Let's start planning your food drive today!
