Post on social media and make sure to tag ACBC Food shelf in your posts and
pictures of your team collecting donations. Make a social media event and post more
than once leading up to the event.
Motivate your team:
You can incentivize meeting your food drive goal with a pizza party, extra PTO, etc.
Use friendly competition by splitting into teams and creative themes such as
macaroni Monday, tuna Tuesday, etc.
