 On Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Jan. 20, visit the National Civil Rights Museum in Downtown Memphis and bring non-perishable food donations collected at the ground's entrances. Your donation effectively serves as your admission price to tour the Museum.

Preferred donations include cans of veggies and assorted meats, cans of fruit (in own juices) and jars of peanut butter. Thank you!

KIDS KAN (Feb. 17 - March 31) is an annual food donation drive collected by over 100 individual schools (middle schools and elementary schools) across Shelby County, within the Catholic Diocese system and DeSoto County, Miss.

The drive accounts for thousands of meals for food-insecure households across the region with each campaign. KIDS KAN is intentionally designed to engage children in the fight versus hunger with first, education, and second, participation. The child hunger rate across the 31-county region that Mid-South Food Bank services is 21 percent.

Each school and each classroom is free to creatively encourage its students to donate non-perishable goods like peanut butter, canned tuna and canned vegetables. Many schools compete from grade to grade, or from one classroom to another with prizes and other incentives.
