Tucson’s community spirit is on full display this summer as Interfaith Community Services (ICS) hosts its annual Peanut Butter Party Food Drive, giving residents a fun and meaningful way to help stock local pantry shelves during the warm summer months.
The beloved yearly event invites Tucsonans to donate peanut butter — a nutritious, shelf-stable staple that is always in high demand at food banks — making it one of the most practical and impactful drives of the season. Summer can be a particularly tough time for families who rely on food assistance, as school meal programs are out of session and household budgets are stretched thin.
ICS has long been a cornerstone of Tucson’s social services network, connecting community members with food, housing support, and other essential resources. The Peanut Butter Party Food Drive is one of the organization’s signature warm-weather traditions, rallying neighbors, businesses, and faith communities alike to pitch in and make a difference close to home.
Whether you drop off a single jar or organize a collection at your workplace or congregation, every contribution goes directly toward feeding Tucson families who need it most. Keep an eye on ICS’s announcements for drop-off locations and dates so you can take part in this sweet summertime act of community kindness.
