in the state, brings together organizations, businesses, faith communities,
and individuals to help stock and support the capacity of nearly 300 food shelves, including the Channel One Food Shelf.
Epicure
Epicure: One Bite at a Time, Channel One Regional Food Bank’s new and exciting fundraising event, will occur on Saturday, April 29th, 2023.
Featuring at least 20 partnering restaurants providing epicurean bites, this exciting new event will give approximately 250 guests a chance to socialize, dance and come together around something that connects us all: food. Proceeds will support Channel One Food Bank’s prepared meals program, Kitchen Coalition.
Empty Bowls
Empty Bowls, our signature fundraiser taking place in October each year, remains a crucial part of Channel One’s work to increase food security for our friends and neighbors. Channel One seeks donations throughout the year from our local arts community in an effort to continue the tradition of providing handmade or hand-painted bowls to our event participants.
Give to the Max Day
Give to the Max Day is Minnesota’s Statewide Day of Giving. Every year, thousands of organizations and individuals generate donations and excitement for Minnesota causes that are working to improve the quality of life for all Minnesotans. Each time you make a gift in November on GiveMN, you could help your favorite nonprofits and schools win part of the $100,000+ Prize Pool!
