🥫 Where to donate food in Michigan
Shelf-stable food goes to local food pantries and the regional food banks that supply them in your area.
Before you go Peanut butter, canned meat and canned fruit are always needed. Check expiration dates; pantries can't hand out expired food. A food drive at church, school or work goes a long way. Choose your region… Detroit & Wayne County (2) Troy, Southfield & Oakland County (2) Warren, Sterling Heights & Macomb County (9) Ann Arbor & Washtenaw County (2) Brighton, Howell & Livingston County (8) Port Huron & St. Clair County (4) Monroe & Monroe County (3) Flint & Genesee County (8) Owosso & Shiawassee County (5) Lansing & East Lansing (5) Charlotte, St. Johns & Greater Lansing (9) Jackson & Jackson County (5) Adrian, Tecumseh & Hillsdale (10) Kalamazoo & Portage (4) Battle Creek, Marshall & Albion (2) Coldwater, Sturgis & Three Rivers (8) St. Joseph, Benton Harbor & Niles (9) Allegan, South Haven & Paw Paw (6) Grand Rapids & Kent County (1) Holland, Grand Haven & Ottawa County (8) Muskegon & Muskegon County (5) Ionia, Greenville & Hastings (3) Ludington, Manistee & Fremont (6) Saginaw & Saginaw County (2) Bay City & Midland (2) Mount Pleasant, Alma & Clare (1) Cadillac & Big Rapids (1) Traverse City & Grand Traverse Region (1) Alpena & the Sunrise Coast (3) Grayling, Houghton Lake & West Branch (4) Sault Ste.
