HOW YOU CAN HELP
There are a number of ways you can help:
1.Make a tax deductible contribution to help keep our
Educational programs operating. You can donate online by
using the "Donate Now" link below.
2. Or if you prefer, you can donate by check.
Our mailing address is: One Accord FoodPantry, Inc., 296 Town Office
Road,
Troy, NY 12180. Phone: (518) 279-9721
3. Volunteer your time. Call our main number and ask for
the volunteer coordinator.
4. How to be a Philanthropic Shopper
Everybody shops.
Books, CDs, clothes, food, sports gear, jewelry, toiletries, flowers,
computers, pet food, children's toys, gifts
In fact, people
shop a lot. Try and count how many trips you've made to the pharmacy
in the past month. Or how often you've needed to buy birthday, wedding
or anniversary gifts for family and friends. Think of how much money
could go to One Accord Food Pantry if supporters did some or all
of their shopping online at www.iGive.com
where up to 25% of every purchase is donated to One Accord Food
Pantry! At iGive.com, membership is free and shopping is easy! In
fact, it's so simple you won't even notice how much money you're
raising for One Accord Food Pantry because there is no extra cost
or obligation to you! So hurry up and visit the Mall at iGive.com,
where you can shop at over 240 merchants, including Amazon.com,
CDNow, Lands' End, Gap.com, PETsMART and more to help One Accord
Food Pantry at the same time! iGive.com will give $1 to One Accord
Food Pantry for every shopper you refer - out to six degrees of
referral!

As you might well imagine it is expensive to run our educational
projects. Since we are an all-volunteer
charity, all donations go to actual operations. You can help (even
if you cant drop by and weed the garden) by donating online
help, financial donations or corporate contacts. We are a 501(c)3
tax-exempt charity. You can be especially helpful by putting to
use any of the concepts we have posted here...or, start a local
group to take some action of your own.
