FREE Produce giveaway
History
Revival of Life's Free Produce Giveaway is a community-driven initiative where donated produce is distributed to individuals and families in the community who are in need. This is Revival of Life's most notable outreach community event, where we collect fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products, grains, and pastries from donations provided by the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. On the giveaway day, participants are welcome to select the produce they need at no cost, promoting access to healthy food and supporting those facing food insecurity. Such events provide essential nourishment and foster community and mutual support among residents.
How it works
Individuals who want to obtain free produce can come to our location at 3914 Lee Rd, where our team is set up to assist them. Simply fill out our form and show us your Driver's License or other form of ID, and that's it. We will then have our team load your car for you with a premade package of assortments.
Things to know when coming for free produce:
This event takes place between 4 pm and 6 pm or when we run out of food, so come quick and come early!
You do not need to get out of your car for our team will handle the heavy lifting for you.
The amount of food you receive is based on your household size, yet feel free to ask for more if desired.
Please try to keep a clean and open area in your back seat/trunk for our team to place your free produce.
