Food drive signup sheet

Collection items and sorting shifts for your food drive.

Food drives collect the wrong mix without guidance — pantries drown in green beans and run out of protein. Listing the actually-needed items with quantities turns random generosity into exactly what the pantry asked for.

How to run it well

  • Call the pantry first and list what they actually need — protein, peanut butter, and cereal usually top the list.
  • Use quantities as goals ("Canned protein — 10 needed") so donors can see progress toward each one.
  • Add sorting and delivery slots; collection is half the job.
  • Post the QR code on the collection box so walk-up donors can claim an item on the spot.

Why SlotsFilled? Participants never create accounts, everyone can edit or cancel their own signup from their confirmation email, reminders go out automatically, and the sheet prints cleanly for the clipboard crowd.
