Drive-thru food distributions at various locations throughout the month
SaveMart
SaveMart supports the Food Bank year-round, helping thousands of people in our community. Each year they host a holiday Turkey Drive in November, provide their customers the opportunity to round up their totals in support of the Food Bank, and host an annual Peanut Butter Drive in May. In addition, in March 2020 they gifted us with emergency pallets of food to feed Nevada County at the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak. A million thanks to SaveMart!
