Start a Virtual Food Drive
Help alleviate hunger in Central Louisiana
Increase your impact by hosting a virtual food drive. Through a virtual food drive, you can raise money for the Food Bank of Central Louisiana by engaging your network of family, friends, co-workers, and neighbors. All of the money you raise will allow FBCenla to purchase additional food to help feed those facing hunger.
Increase Your Impact
FBCenla has 2:1 buying power which means every dollar donated can purchase twice as much food than what can be purchased at the grocery store. Virtual food drives allow the Food Bank to purchase what it needs when it’s needed. It also allows contributors to participate from the comfort of their own home.
