How you can donate and help YOUR neighbors

Donate FOOD:

Our local grocery store, Martin's Market, is currently running a food drive to benefit the Cashmere Food Bank. You give $20 to donate a bag of groceries worth $35. For more information see this flyer. This drive begins on October 30 and ends on November 28. Please participate to help the food bank. Thank you Martin's Market!

 

The food bank receives the bulk of its food for distribution through the Chelan-Douglas Community Action Council. The food comes from the US Department of Agriculture's TEFAP program and two charitable organizations: Northwest Harvest and Second Harvest. Martin's IGA is also a partner in supplying meat to clients during the holidays and other times of need. However, we rely on food donations from community members to supplement those staples with items such as cereal and canned food (vegetables, fruit, tuna, soup). We appreciate donations of all other food products that are unexpired and unopened. 

 

Non-perishable food donations can be dropped off at our location at 316 River St. Please place the items in the filing cabinet. Our volunteers check it regularly. Please call 509-245-6464 if you have more food than will fit in the drop-off bin, or you are interested in donating fresh produce.

Donating food is easy- just drop off at your convenience in this drop box!

Donate MONEY:

The food bank has been the grateful recipient of cash donations for many years from individuals and organizations in our community.  In 2020 we received a record amount of monetary donations. The outpouring of support from our community has been tremendous and deeply appreciated. Although most of the food we receive is free of charge we have some ongoing costs as part of our food bank operation and since 2023 we've had to purchase food to keep up with an increase in demand. We are always looking to improve our service to the community and will continue to find ways to do so with the help of these funds.​​

​

To contribute to our community food bank please make checks out to “Cashmere Food Bank” and mail to PO Box 225, Cashmere, WA 98815. All monetary donations are tax deductible and you will be provided a receipt at the beginning of the year for tax purposes. Our EIN # is 46-5630025. If you prefer to donate online please click the button below to submit your one-time donation or set up a recurring donation.

Donate via Martin's Receipts:

Our local grocery store, Martin's Market IGA, also supports the food bank by donating 1% of submitted customer receipts. Please save up your Martin's receipts and mail them to our PO Box or drop them off at distribution so that we can receive the 1% donation.
