Commissioners & Cans 2025

How You Can Support Commissioners & Cans
1️⃣ Drop Off Donations
Bring non-perishable food items (canned goods, pasta, rice, cereal, etc.) to your local Commissioner of the Revenue office during the month of August.
✅ Every item stays in your community and supports the food bank serving your area.

2️⃣ Give Gift Cards or Funds
Pick up a grocery store gift card (any amount helps!) or make a donation directly to your local food bank — it all counts toward the Commissioners & Cans drive.

3️⃣ Host Your Own Mini-Drive
Schools, businesses, churches, and neighborhood groups can join the effort by collecting food or gift cards and delivering them to your Commissioner’s office.

4️⃣ Spread the Word
Share this event, talk about it on social media, and tell friends, coworkers, and neighbors. Awareness is powerful — the more people who know, the more families we can help.

5️⃣ Cheer On Your Community
Encourage friendly competition! Offices that collect the most per capita are honored each year — your contributions help your city or county shine.
