Food Donation

You can make a difference with a food drive

The Franciscan Kitchen will put non perishable food items (canned goods, grains, paper products, etc) from your surplus to good use.

We can send our van to pick up items between 9:00 a.m. and noon, Monday through Friday. You are also welcome to come to our entrance between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m., Monday through Friday to drop goods off in person. The kitchen entrance and delivery area are in the back of the building in the alley between E. Jacob and E. College streets. 

All donations, large and small, are received with gratitude by the Franciscan Kitchen and by our grateful daily guests.

Leftovers prepared in commercial kitchens or by caterers

The leftover or excess food from your special event doesn't have to go to waste. We can use most commercially prepared food, from soup to desserts, here at the Franciscan Kitchen.

We can pick up the food between 9 a.m. and 12:00 noon, Monday through Friday. You are also welcome to bring your leftovers between 6 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. The kitchen entrance and delivery area are in the back of the building in the alley between E. Jacob and E. College streets.
