Donation to the Second Harvest Food Bank

San Jose, CA
The Silicon Valley Chapter for Nurse Practitioners

Dear Chapter members,

This year we are asking for your help.  We are hosting a food drive and looking for donations to be made to the Second Harvest Food Bank in Santa Clara County. 

If possible please bring a single item for donation to our dinner meeting November 12th. 

The Food Bank needs nutritious, non-perishable foods:

  • Meals in a can (stew, chili, soup)
  • Tuna and canned meat
  • Peanut butter
  • Canned foods with pop-top lids
  • Low-sugar cereals
  • 100% fruit juices in single serving boxes
  • Canned fruit packed in juice
  • Canned vegetables (low salt)

Please avoid donating items packaged in glass. 

The Food Bank requests do not donate bulk quantities of rice, flour, or sugar. They do not have the repackaging facilities needed to properly distribute such items. 

Thank you in advance for your support. The website also has a list of food items suitable for children. For additional information go to the website http://www.shfb.org
