Making a monthly gift provides consistent support for our food distributions throughout the year. Contact us to set up a monthly draft from your account. president@loavesandfishesellsworth.org

Gifts of appreciated stock have significant tax advantages to you, the donor, and we are pleased to receive stock gifts to support our programs. When you make a gift of appreciated stock, you receive two tax benefits:

• A deduction for the full market value of the securities, and
• Avoidance of the tax due on the capital gains.

Many employers sponsor programs that match charitable contributions made by their employees, allowing you to double or even triple the value of your gift.

We will be happy to provide you or your employer with any necessary documentation to facilitate your matching gift. Contact us at president@loavesandfishesellsworth.org

We welcome your donation of non-perishable food, hygiene items, pet food and cat litter. Food items must be in unopened packages and checked for expiration dates. Please have donations in bags or boxes that can be left at the pantry (119 Bucksport Rd., Ellsworth) on Monday, Wednesday or Friday between 7am and 1pm.

We are also able to accept fresh home-grown produce.

If these drop off hours do not work for you contact us at loavesandfishesellsworth@gmail.com for other options
