Fill the F-150: Help Grappone Ford Support Our Community This June

This June, Grappone Ford is proud to open our doors to something bigger than ourselves: community. As part of the national Ford Community Impact Platform, we’re joining forces with Ford dealers across the country to make a meaningful difference. Together, Ford and its network are donating $5 million to national nonprofit partners: American Red Cross, Team Rubicon, Habitat for Humanity, and Feeding America. But here at home, our hearts and efforts are focused on a beloved local organization: The Friendly Kitchen.

Grappone Ford x The Friendly Kitchen: Let’s Fill the Truck

Throughout the month of June, our mission is simple and powerful: Fill the bed of our showroom F-150 with food donations. This iconic truck will become a beacon of generosity as we collect non-perishable items to support The Friendly Kitchen’s mission of feeding our neighbors in need.

Located in Concord, NH, The Friendly Kitchen is the only soup kitchen in the area and serves thousands of meals each month to those experiencing food insecurity. Every donation we collect brings nourishment and hope to someone right here in our community.

What to Bring

Your donations make a direct impact. Some of the most requested items include:

  • Pasta and pasta sauce
  • Canned vegetables like carrots, beans, and mixed varieties
  • Chicken or beef broth
  • Applesauce and instant potatoes
  • Granola bars and pancake mix
  • Condiments like ketchup, mustard, mayo, and olive oil
  • Paper towels, aluminum foil, and bleach

You’ll find a complete list of needs linked at the end of this post to help you plan your contribution.
