The Connecticut Department of Agriculture, in partnership with The Salvation Army Southern New England Division, CT National Guard, CT Department of Social Services, and FEMA have assumed approximately 30,000 food boxes.
Each box is approx. 22 lbs. of nonperishable food. The contents vary but include items such as rice and beans, dehydrated milk, mac and cheese, and other canned goods.
Organizations can order by whole pallets only (64 boxes to a pallet). The pallets are sized 4 x 4. A ONE TIME DELIVERY for the total boxes requested will be delivered. Multiple trailers can be requested as long as you have storage space.
Organizations not affiliated with a larger food bank network and organizations who can act as a 'regional' food hub to a network of smaller organizations may be given priority.
Please complete this questionnaire to request delivery of shelf stable food boxes for your organization, or a group of organizations. *Requests must be submitted by Wednesday June 9th, 2021. *
**Please be aware that filling out this form does not guarantee delivery and that this is just a preliminary expression of interest; you will be contacted for more information prior to a schedule being determined.**
