Mayflower Marathon

Pembroke Square • October 24, 2022

Now more than ever, the Foodbank needs your help to make the holidays hunger-free this giving season.


Mayflower Marathon is a 57-hour consecutive food and fund drive happening November 18-20, 2022. Last year, this event collected enough food and monetary donations to provide more than 537,000 meals (over 840,000 meals including the Virginia Peninsula Food Bank’s donations). With 57 hours to participate, giving has never been so easy. Simply drive through and donate; volunteers will be on hand to collect your donations.


As the holiday season quickly approaches, your support will allow us to meet the growing needs of our community and provide something many of our vulnerable neighbors lost during the pandemic— hope. Together, with you, we are ending hunger today and nourishing hope for tomorrow.
