The process is quick, repeatable, and easy to follow. Fill a bag, leave it out, and volunteers handle the rest.

Sign Up

Become a food donor and receive your reusable green Redmond Food Project bag.

A neighborhood volunteer will drop off your first bag along with instructions. Once you’re signed up, you’re part of the project.

Step 2 icon

Fill Your Bag

When you go grocery shopping, simply add one or two extra non-perishable items for neighbors who need help.

Store them in your green bag until the next collection day.

Leave It Out

On collection day, place your filled green bag outside your front door.

Neighborhood coordinators will pick it up and leave an empty bag so you can start again for the next pickup.

We Deliver It

All food collected is delivered to the Redmond St. Vincent de Paul food pantry where it is distributed to families who need it most.

Your single bag combines with hundreds of others to help feed the community.

A Community Effort That Adds Up

The Redmond Food Project works because people participate consistently. What started as a local idea has grown into a coordinated network of households and volunteers working together to support families across the community. These numbers reflect the steady participation that keeps food moving where it is needed most.
