About the Food Drive
The Hancock County Food Drive is an annual month-long food collection and fundraising project that directly supports food pantries, free meal programs, and school nutrition programs across Hancock County. With the help of volunteers, these organizations work together every spring to raise funds and collect food, providing critical assistance to Mainers during a time when food insecurity rates are at their highest.
The 2022 Food Drive supports the following organizations
