Scouting for Food 2021!

Date: April 17, 2021
 
This year’s Scouting for Food takes place on April 17. This is the council’s largest service project and it brings in over 34,000 pounds every year to help the area food pantries. That equals over 15 tons of food that lasts between 3 and 6 months! We have been doing this project since 1990.

What changes are taking place due to COVID-19?
We are evaluating how best to handle Scouting for Food in 2021. We will be cognizant of COVID-19 in the area and plan accordingly.

What can be collected?
Scouting for Food can collect more than just food. It is a drive for non-perishable items and could also include toiletries. Another useful donation to Scouting for Food is money - this provides the Dubuque Food Pantry flexibility and buying power for the items they need.

What items are most needed?

  • Peanut Butter
  • Jelly
  • Canned Fruit
  • Pasta
  • Sauces
  • Soups
  • Canned or Boxed Potatoes
  • Personal Care Items
  • NO GLASS or PERISHABLE items please!

What else can we do to help?
In addition to helping at the Dubuque Hy-Vee stores, we want your help in promoting the event! Share the information with everyone you know! Share the event on social media!
