The 2023 WARM Holiday Food Drive was a huge success. WARM collected 41,026 lbs. of food and household items in ONE day!
The WARM Holiday Food Drive is an annual event, in partnership with Kroger and Westerville Rotary. It is a local effort to collect food and household donations for those in need during the holiday season. An army of dedicated volunteers canvas neighborhoods throughout the Westerville community dropping off grocery bags that we ask you to fill with "most needed items". Volunteers then return to collect donated items.
The WARM Holiday Food Drive runs for 2 Saturdays each year, beginning with the first Saturday after Thanksgiving with the "grocery bag drop off" to designated neighborhoods throughout the Westerville community. The following Saturday, volunteers return to the neighborhoods to retrieve the grocery bags of donated items. Monetary donations are also accepted for this event.
The 2024 dates for WARM's Holiday Food Drive are Saturday, November 30, and Saturday, December 7.
Thank you to all who participated in making the holidays a bit brighter for those in need in our community.
