Every dollar you donate to Feeding San Diego helps provide two meals to San Diegans facing food insecurity. Our efficient model moves beyond a traditional food bank system to make your donation go even further in the community. By making a gift, you offer hope to children, seniors, families, and veterans.
Ways to Get Involved During Stock the Shelves
Volunteer at a Produce Pantry
Volunteers are a critical part of our mission at Feeding San Diego. We have many volunteer opportunities at our Sorrento Valley headquarters and other locations in the community, including distributions focused on providing fresh produce to local families.
Join the Legacy Society
The Legacy Society allows you to leave a planned gift that reflects the values you hold dear. If your core values include the belief that no one in San Diego County should go hungry, consider remembering Feeding San Diego in your will, trust, IRA, or insurance policy.
To come here helps a lot. It shows that people care and that there are people that understand that it’s not always so easy for active-duty military.
“Serving in the military, you get to meet people that you wouldn’t normally meet, like outside the Marine Corps. You meet people from all over. Different experiences, different lifestyles. But even receiving Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) and everything like that, the cost out here, in my eyes, is really expensive. A gallon of milk is way more than I’ve seen anywhere else. With working here on base, for my job, I’m required to bring my food to work. You have to prepare all that beforehand. Even buying groceries to do that, it’s a lot of money. I just had a baby, and it’s been ok. It would be a lot worse if I didn’t have a lot of people at work that cared about me. It helps out. I don’t have any family here, but my workspace is really family-oriented. A lot of them have kids, so they know how hard it is. To come here helps a lot. It shows that people care and that there are people that understand that it’s not always so easy for active-duty military. When you calculate it all, and you see how much you’re actually getting paid, it’s not that much. What I got today helps out tremendously. Thank you, it’s great that there are people out there that donate.”
