One time only - Donors which have a rare overage.
Occasional - Donor which have excess food less often than once per week            (i.e. caterers).
Once a week - Donors which are able to hold their surplus food in a freezer for a 7-day period.
1-7 days/week - Donors such as supermarkets, which have minimum storage space, necessitating a collection of their excess more than once a week.
Special Event - Donors of community events which have vendor participation or a non-perishable food drives as part of the event.
Planned Overages - This is an opportunity for the business that does not regularly have overages but will prepare an inexpensive meal for 30 people once a month (or more frequently if desired) and then donate the food so that Tampa Bay Harvest can deliver it to a local shelter or soup kitchen.

What do you need to do?

One time and occasional donors must inform us that food is available for donation. A volunteer will be dispatched accordingly to meet the needs of the donor. A minimum of a two-hour window is requested.

Special Event donors need to notify us in advance of their event if at all possible. These events may involve the scheduling or more than one volunteer, nighttime deliveries and special parking arrangements.

Donors requiring a collection of at least once per week will need to set up a schedule that works for both TBH and the donor management. Every effort will be made to minimize disruption to your business.
