HELP SUPPORT BETHESDA HELP'S VITAL MISSION TO THE COMMUNITY
Bethesda Help is supported by local churches, individuals, schools, businesses, and community groups through food drives, cash donations, and grants. We welcome contributions at any time. 93% of every dollar goes towards providing food and/or financial assistance to the needy in your area. We are entirely volunteer-driven.
Sponsoring food drives is another way that organizations and individuals can help. For a copy of the Food Drive Tool Kit, that describes the steps to hosting a successful food drive, includes sample flyers, a list of stocked items in the Bethesda Help pantry, and information from Mana about food dating, click here: Bethesda Help Food Drive Tool Kit
