Donations can be dropped off between February 1-15 outside the Downtown Mall entrance of Charlottesville City Hall


CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA - The Third Annual Commissioners and Cans Food and Fund Drive for the Commonwealth begins February 1 and is a two-week event to raise food and funds for local Area Food Banks to help fight against food insecurity. The City of Charlottesville Commissioner of the Revenue’s Office will begin collecting non-perishable food items for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. The drive will run until February 15.

Donations can be dropped off between February 1-15 outside the Downtown Mall entrance of Charlottesville City Hall

You can also donate online at www.brafb.org/commissioners. Every $1 donated helps to provide enough food for 4 meals!

“We are honored to participate yet again in such a worthwhile cause, particularly during this difficult time,” said Todd Divers, Charlottesville Commissioner of the Revenue.

Offices around the Commonwealth compete to collect the most food/funds during a time of the year when resources are in short supply and the need remains great. With more Commissioners of the Revenue from around the state joining the effort, we are hopeful to do much more in 2021!
