March Campaign

March Campaign Kicks off March 1st !!

Join Minnesota’s largest Food & Fund Drive
March 1st- April 6th 2025!

 

Minnesota FoodShare March Campaign, the largest grassroots food and fund drive in the state, brings together organizations, businesses, faith communities, and individuals to help stock and support the capacity of nearly 300 food shelves.

During this month of giving, all donations to The Open Door (both food and financial) are proportionally matched by Minnesota Food Share. That means the more we raise, the more we get!

To date, GMCC’s Minnesota FoodShare has distributed over $18.5 million dollars via the FoodFund. Help The Open Door get a bigger piece of the pie by donating directly to our hunger relief efforts!

Donate Today!

We aim to raise $200,000 this March and take in 200,000 lbs of food via food rescue, community drives, and individual donations.

How you can get involved:
