Why is the project nine weeks long?
Project Feed Me was designed to help feed hungry famlies over the holidays.  What better way to give back and share our blessings with those in need. The project will end two weeks before Christmas allowing members to deliver and donate their items before the holiday. Project Feed Me’s proceeds with then help feed hungry families over the holidays.

How do I tell others about the Project?

Is Project Feed Me a competition?
No. Project Feed Me is not a competition. Our goal is however to rally as many people as possible to participate.  If friendly competition will help you get the job done…so be it, but remember, the only prizes that will be given are your food donations to hungry children and families across the country. What better prize could their be?!!

Can I register and participate even if the Project has already started?
Absolutely!  Whether you start at week one or week eight, your participation is NEEDED!!

Why do I need to purchase the recommended food item, can’t I just buy any type of food?
Food banks ask that if possible people buy the items on their recommended food list.  This helps the food banks acquire the foods people are in need of.

How do I know what the recommended food item is for each week of the program?
Every Monday Starting Monday October 12th, the recommended food item for that week will be posted at “nono2yoyo.com“. Make sure to check back weekly so you can purchase the right items each week.

When do I take the food to the food bank?
You can take your food to your local food bank at the end of the nine week project.

When the project is over where do I deliver my food?
