Fill the Mayflower

Fill the Mayflower 2025 is on Friday, November 21!

The 18th Annual  Fill the Mayflower food and funds drive - presented by Coastal Moving & Storage - will be held on Friday, November 21, from 5:00 AM to 6:30 PM.

We encourage YOU to #FightHunger by bringing healthy, nonperishable food donations and monetary gifts (cash, credit/debit cards, and checks accepted) to the Dillard's parking lot at Cordova Mall (5100 N. Ninth Avenue, Pensacola, south of BJ's Restaurant, to benefit children, senior citizens, veterans, families and individuals in need right here in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties!

Donating is easy, and supporters can remain safely in their vehicles! Volunteers will offload food donations from vehicles at the Mayflower truck and accept monetary gifts (cash, credit/debit cards, and checks accepted). A donation of just $25.00 will provide food for five days to a child in need, and $50.00 will provide 30 healthy meals for a senior citizen.

Manna’s most needed food items are:

• Canned Beans (20 oz. or less)
• Oatmeal (boxes of single-serve packets)
• Canned Mixed Vegetables (16 oz. or less)
• Canned Fruit in 100% Juice (20 oz. or less)
• Microwaveable Dinners (e.g., Hormel Compleats)
• Peanut Butter (1 lb. jars and individual to-go cups)
• Chicken & Tuna (canned and pouches, 12.5 oz. or less)

Manna accepts and appreciates all nonperishable food donations. To ensure food safety, Manna cannot accept any rusty or unlabeled cans, perishable items, homemade items, noncommercial canned or packaged goods, alcoholic beverages, or items that have been used or opened.

Fill the Mayflower is one of Manna’s largest food drives of the year and plays a critical role in meeting the needs of the hungry in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. Food collected at Fill the Mayflower will help Manna provide nutritious food to neighbors in need in the coming months.

Fill the Mayflower is made possible by Coastal Moving & Storage and media partners Cat Country 98.7, NewsRadio 92.3, and WEAR 3.
