Attach a photo

Add a photo of this place

A picture of the building, the sign or the door helps someone know they are in the right place. A volunteer checks every photo before it appears.

Please do not photograph people. Nobody should have to worry that collecting food will put them in a picture on the internet.

A photo of the building, the sign, the entrance or the posted hours is what helps someone find the door.

JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 6 MB. iPhone HEIC photos need to be shared or exported as JPEG first.

Helps the volunteer describe the picture. Never published as you wrote it.
