We're the official ACCFB Food Drive Host!
We're proud to once again partner with the Alameda County Community Food Bank as the official Food Drive Host for 2026.In 2025, we collected a total of 22,786 pounds of food. This provides almost 19,000 meals to those in need. Thank you to those who have donated and the branch staff who helped support the food drive all year long.
Want to donate? You can drop off non-perishable food at any of our 1st United branches. It's an easy way to make a difference right here in our community.
