Donating food is easy. Just look for collection bins at Harris Teeter stores throughout the region, starting April 1.

On Feed the Need day, April 16, you can also bring your donations to the Food Bank trucks at three Harris Teeters: Crescent Commons in Cary, Falls Pointe in Raleigh and Cameron Village in Raleigh.

You can donate online using the Food Bank's virtual food drive tool here.
