HELP!!! Who and How ~ Solicitation for food bank items at church???!


Question: I was wondering if anyone knew who at companies should I write, call, or email to solicit for food, personal, baby etc items? I am a volunteer at a new church food bank and we have a truck that delivers food now, but we need more items and personal items such as toilet paper, diapers, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, soaps etc.

Who do I contact to see if a company can spare any of these items and what should I ask them?

Any and all advice will help!!!!

Call your local supermarkets, drug stores, etc, and ask to speak to the manager. Or look up their corporate info on the Internet and call or email to ask for donations.

I would think the one in charge of fundraising and or donations. If you do get phone numbers for the companies the operator can assist you with that. Hopefully anyway....
