days to build the shelves back up
You do not have to complete all 31 days to participate. One item, one bag or one workplace collection still helps.
Help us build the pantry.
Current needs
October is our 2026 31 Days of Giving.
Almost Home is using this month to restock the pantry one practical item at a time.
Pick an item from the daily list, bring a bag of pantry basics, or organize a small collection with people you know. If time is tight, click DONATE GOODS to go straight to our Amazon Wish List — it puts our current needs right in front of you.
Why this matters
A pantry stays useful only when it stays stocked.
Over the past two years, Almost Home has shared more than 140,000 pantry items with neighbors in need. That is only possible because of your generosity and support.
Your support keeps everyday essentials on the shelves when neighbors need them most.
