ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Oct. 29, 2025) — The Alaska Democratic Party has launched a community food drive to help families affected by the ongoing government shutdown and reduced access to food assistance programs.
The initiative runs from October 29 through November 17, with donation drop-offs open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the party’s headquarters located at 1500 W 33rd Avenue, Suite 210, Anchorage, AK 99503.
According to organizers, the food drive aims to support Alaska’s military families, families of federal workers, and those impacted by recent SNAP funding cuts. The collected items will be distributed through the Food Bank of Alaska and other local partners.
Community members are encouraged to donate non-perishable food items, such as canned goods, pasta, rice, dried fruits, beans, and shelf-stable proteins. The Food Bank of Alaska’s “Healthy Donation List” includes items like canned produce, whole grains, and nut butters.
The Alaska Democrats emphasized that this effort is part of a broader push to strengthen community support during a challenging time for many households.
