特拉华州食物银行启动年度感恩节食物征集：捐赠请于11月13日中午前送抵纽瓦克与米尔福德两处仓库
纽瓦克与米尔福德，特拉华州 — 特拉华州食物银行启动年度感恩节食物征集，邀请个人、企业、学校与社区团体捐赠食物、组织征集活动或捐款。感恩节捐赠请于 11 月 13 日星期五中午前送达。
食物银行引述 Feeding America 估算称，特拉华州约有 15.7 万人面临食物不安全问题，其中包括 4.2 万名儿童。食物银行位于纽瓦克与米尔福德的健康食品储藏中心今夏到访量较去年同期增加 22%，2026 年 9 月到访量较 2025 年 9 月增加 15%。
食物银行总裁兼首席执行官 Cathy Kanefsky 表示，对许多家庭而言，感恩节是与亲人团聚、共享一餐的时刻，但对已难以负担食品与基本开销的邻里来说，置办节日餐食可能遥不可及。她表示，没有家庭应在付账单与共度感恩节之间作选择。
征集清单包括罐装蔬菜与水果、罐装肉汁与蔓越莓酱、速溶土豆泥与填料混合料、罐装肉类与汤类、玉米面包与饼干混合料、冷冻火鸡、婴儿尿布与配方奶、麦片、花生酱与果酱。捐赠可送至纽瓦克湖大道 222 号或米尔福德特拉华退伍军人大道 102 号的两处设施，冷冻火鸡须直接送至仓库。食物银行提醒，两处地点周五常规捐赠时段至上午 11 时 30 分结束，捐赠者应据此安排；截止时间后收到的捐赠将在节日季余下时间陆续分发。今年新增线上虚拟食物征集，支持者可在线选购所需物品并作可抵税捐款，也可建立个人筹款页面。
Food Bank of Delaware Launches Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive: Donations Requested by Noon on Friday, November 13, at Warehouses in Newark and Milford
Newark and Milford, Delaware — The Food Bank of Delaware has launched its annual Thanksgiving Food Drive, inviting individuals, businesses, schools and community groups to donate food, organize collections or contribute financially. Thanksgiving donations are requested by noon on Friday, November 13, 2026.
According to Feeding America estimates cited by the Food Bank, approximately 157,000 Delawareans, including 42,000 children, face food insecurity. Visits to its Healthy Pantry Centers in Newark and Milford increased 22 percent during the summer compared with the same period last year, and September 2026 visits increased 15 percent compared with September 2025.
For many families, Thanksgiving is a time to gather with loved ones and enjoy a special meal. But for neighbors already struggling to afford groceries and other basic necessities, putting a holiday meal on the table can feel out of reach, said Cathy Kanefsky, President and CEO of the Food Bank of Delaware. No family should have to choose between paying a bill and celebrating Thanksgiving together.
Requested donations include canned vegetables and fruits, canned gravy and cranberry sauce, instant mashed potatoes and stuffing mix, canned meats and soups, cornbread and biscuit mix, frozen turkeys, baby diapers and formula, cereal, and peanut butter and jelly. Donations may be delivered to 222 Lake Drive in Newark or 102 Delaware Veterans Blvd. in Milford, and frozen turkeys must be delivered directly to one of the warehouses. The Food Bank notes that regular Friday donation hours at both locations end at 11:30 a.m., and donations received after the Thanksgiving deadline will be distributed throughout the remainder of the holiday season. A virtual food drive is new this year, allowing supporters to fill an online cart and make a tax deductible donation or create a personal fundraising page.
