The Mets will host the annual Summer Food Drive presented by 1PointFive to benefit New York Common Pantry during the Mets vs. Braves Series on July 26 & 27 at Citi Field. New York Common Pantry works toward the reduction of hunger and food insecurity through an array of programs that function to establish long-term independence for those they serve. Their whole-person approach includes services such as fresh food pantry packages, hot meals, supplemental food for seniors, connection to resources and live healthy programs.

Collection points will be set up at the Jackie Robinson Rotunda. Fans must make their donation at the collection points outside of the Jackie Robinson Rotunda before entering Citi Field. Please note that there will not be collection points inside of the stadium. Fans who donate at least 10 non-perishable items will receive a voucher redeemable for two tickets to a select Mets regular season home game in 2024.

All types of canned and packaged goods are welcome, but no glass containers or perishable food. Please note that expired items will not be accepted. The most needed foods are:

  • Milk (powdered, evaporated, boxed)
