    Description

    Host a Pinky Swear Pantry Drive

    Our on-site food pantry eases families' day-to-day worries while they support their child during extended hospital stays. The Pinky Swear Pantry allows families to grab lunch or snacks without worrying about the financial cost, giving them more time to spend with their child.

    You can find Pinky Swear Pantries at two hospitals in Minnesota: the University of Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital and Children’s Hospital.

    Support the Pinky Swear Pantry by hosting a food drive to stock our hospital food pantries! Contact us at jessica.hansen@pinkyswear.org to volunteer as an individual or group, or to schedule a pantry drop-off at our location.

    Not sure what food items we need?

    We accept microwavable items like single servings of macaroni and cheese, soup, ramen, and oatmeal. Families also enjoy dry goods such as granola bars, fruit snacks, chips, cookies, and beef jerky.

    If you’re interested in hosting a food drive to help stock our Pinky Swear Pantries, please email jessica.hansen@pinkyswear.org, and we’ll send you a customizable flyer!
