Can someone bring more than one item?

Yes. They can pick several rows at once, and say how many of each in their note.

Can I change the list later?

Yes. From your private link you can add, rename or remove rows, and change the counts.

What happens when we have enough of something?

The row is marked full and stays on the list, so everyone can see it's covered.

Food drive sign-up sheet

What's needed, and who's bringing it.

A food drive sign-up sheet that lists what the food bank needs, with a count on each line, so you get balanced hampers rather than sixty cans of beans. People claim what they'll bring, and the counts go down as things are spoken for.

How to set it up

Ask the food bankFind out what they're short of, and change the list to match. Food banks often need protein and toiletries most.
Add the detailsPut where to drop food off and the last day in the description.
Send the linkShare it at work, at school, or in the neighbourhood. Nobody needs an account.
Watch the countsYour private link shows how much of each is spoken for. Full rows close, so the hampers stay balanced.

What helps

Each sign-up is one place on a row. Ask people to sign up once for each item they're bringing, or to say “3 cans” in their note.
Unopened, in-date food is what a food bank can use. Say so.
Some food banks prefer money, which buys more. If yours does, say how to give it.
Diapers, formula and menstrual products are often short. Add rows if your food bank asks for them.

Something to send with the link

Copy it into a text, an email or the group chat, change what you like, and paste your link at the end.
