Last year:

This Year:
We have partnered with a few great local organizations to feed even more families. The holidays are approaching and many are in need in these tough economic times. This year we have chosen to support  The Chandler Foodbank with our efforts. Let’s get this party started!

Phoenix Design Week will be the kickoff event for the food drive. All attendee’s are encouraged to bring two cans of food and a business card to the 10/2 and 10/3 #phxdw events. A raffle will be held after the event and five lucky creatives will win a stylish American Apparel T-shirt from Design.org. In addition, if at least 200 cans are donated, I will personally do a another drawing for a Wacom “Bamboo” Tablet for one lucky designer.

gp fooddrive 150x150 The Mother of all Food DrivesBeginning October 11th, Gangplank will begin accepting and encouraging canned food donations everyday and at all events. If you or your group are coming to Gangplank for any reason, you are being asked to help with our efforts and bring some cans of food with you for a donation.

This year has been tough for a lot of people and families in our communities. Let’s do what we can to help. Ready, set, go!

Ignite Phoenix #8 will be accepting donations of canned food at their October 15th event. This is going to be one sweet event with more than 800 tickets available. Just think of the impact it will have if every single person brought a can of food for donation at this event. Rock on PHX, rock on.

Some intersting developments regarding the Gangplank Ton of Food Foodrive.

First.. we are off to good start as evidenced by this picture.

We are trying to raise 2000lbs of food for a donation to St. Mary’s Foodbank in Phoenix. That would be about 2100 cans.  If you are coming to gangplank for hacknight, or wed brown bag… or anything, pleae bring some canned goods. Demand at St. Mary’s Foodbank is up 90%.. donations are only up 50%.. so they have a imbalance they need help with.

Finally.. Dan G called me and said he heard some chatter that the folks at terralever think they can raise more food than us. First.. What do they need a Lever for?, Two.. they dont have chance..  This means war..

So this is a call to arms for all the cool cats.. no way we are going to let those design lackeys at Terralever out do us at our own game. What you Got Richter?  Bring it!

Rules
2000lbs (Approx 2100 15oz cans ) of food donated to St. Mary’s Foodbank.. before August 1 2009.
Use any means at your disposal

UPDATE:

So It looks like Off Madison Ave is jumping on board the Terra Lever team.. and they need the help as Jason Ayers just agreed to make a sizeable donation.  He tweeted:

“For every person who retweets this, I will donate 2 cans of food to @gangplank #phxfooddrive”

Within 20 minutes he was at 107 RT’s and according to the paper in this photo.. he is up around 495? THANKS JASON
