07 Jul Food Bank Newsletter Inspiration

Some of the CUFBA schools write newsletters that come out each month, or quarter, or semester. Newsletters are a great way to:

• Share information about your work such as clients served, food distributed, volunteer hours, donations received, or other metrics.
• Recognize your staff and/or volunteers.
• Provide lists of food items or other supplies you need.
• Offer other resources (beyond your services) to clients or community members.
• Communicate updates such as changes in location, procedure, eligibility requirements, etc.
• List distribution times and/or locations.
• Help people learn how they can volunteer or donate.
• Whatever else you can dream up.

Here is a great example of a pantry newsletter from Michigan State University.
