This year, as in years past, we will be collecting food in the lobby of City Center to be donated to the San Francisco Food Bank.

The barrel will be in place during the months of November and December. Donated food should not be in glass jars or bottles. Items particularly requested by the food bank are:
- Tuna, canned meat
- Peanut butter
- Soup, chili
- Beans
- Cereal
- Canned fruit and vegetables
- Granola bars
Perishable items are not accepted.
If you would like to make a monetary donation as part of Zen Center’s holiday drive, please go to:
food bank monetary donations.
We are hoping to raise at least $1000 and to fill the food barrel two or three times. We appreciate your generosity during this season which can be so difficult for so many in our city.
