Something that a lot of chapters do is collect monetary donations and find a food bank that will give you the most pounds of food for every dollar. Thats the secret to those chapters that get 200,000 pounds. Something that my chapter does is we have a contest with campus groups on who can get the most cans and donations. We schedule a day for the contest and we break up the groups into different busy street intersections in town and they have signs and ask for donations. We sponsor lunch for them through whoever donates the meals. At the end of the day we tally up all the can food and the donations we collected and give the winning team a trophy as NAFD winner. We pay for t-shirts and banners through sponsors, you put their name on your shirt and tell them a whole bunch of college kids will be wearing them, small price for lots of advertising.
