For months, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has continued to donate truckload after truckload of food donations to food banks across the United States.
The Church is committed to donating 250 truckloads of food in 2026 in honor of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Each truckload carries approximately 40,000 pounds of food — enough to feed 1,400 people for a week. The donations actually started in November 2025 and are set to continue throughout 2026.
Latter-day Saints joined a local group of the Knights of Columbus from Laguna Niguel, California on Saturday, Feb. 21, to help unload a delivery of food in Irvine, California. The group also included youth volunteers who learned about the event through JustServe.org.
