How you can help
Food Bank for the Heartland is working with state and local governments, first responders, and our Network Partners to identify areas of critical need to deploy food and water effectively to communities impacted by the storm.
You can help by making a monetary donation. A gift of $1 can provide more than three meals. Please click here to donate today.
For food donations, blue collection barrels have been placed at all Baker’s locations across the Omaha metro. Donations are also accepted at the Food Bank (click here to learn more). We are seeking donations of snacks, bottled water, and other non-perishable items.
Please continue to visit this page to learn more about ways you can get involved and help us support our affected communities in the weeks and months ahead.
