Share some goodness in the neighborhood this holiday season by donating non-perishable food or hygiene items for the Ballard Food Bank. Dozens of Ballard businesses have set up drop-off bins at their location for the Harvest Food Drive. Next time you visit, bring items to donate. We will take it from there and ensure our neighbors in need have what they need this holiday season. Check out the list of participating drop-off locations below.

The Ballard Food Bank provides access to nutritious food through their grocery-style food bank, no-cost café, home delivery, and Weekend Food for Kids program. Additionally, they host the Community Resource Hub, where partner organizations offer a range of services like housing, medical care, and veterans’ benefits – all under one roof. A crucial part of the Food Bank’s mission is access to healthy foods for everyone, so make a difference by donating today!
