Gilbert First is a community drop off location on February 22-23, 2025.

Gilbert needs your help to restock local food pantries after the demand from the holidays.

Join us for our annual community-wide food drive and help us feed Gilbert families in need. We’re collecting food donations at several drop-off locations throughout Gilbert. This is a great opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those who may not have access to the food they need for their families.

• Canned protein (chicken and tuna)
• Peanut butter
• Squeezable jelly (no glass)
• Breakfast cereals (whole wheat, healthy preferred)
• Canned beans, vegetables and fruit
• Bags of Pasta and Rice
• Canned pasta (i.e. Ravioli)

All donated food items should be unopened, non-perishable and should not be past its expiration date. Please, no glass containers.

Please Note: The food drive is not able to accept Citrus fruit.  However, AZCEND, City Hope, Matthew’s Crossing and St. Anne’s Friends of the Needy are able to accept direct donations.
