Drone Delivery with a Purpose: Uniting Communities Through Drone It Forward: Food Bank Fill-Up

December 11, 2023

At DroneUp, innovation and community engagement are at the core of our mission. We're thrilled to introduce our Drone It Forward: Food Bank Fill-Up program, designed to make a tangible difference in the communities where our Hubs are located. This campaign focuses on stocking local food banks by leveraging our established drone delivery process, creating a seamless platform for customer donations, with a social impact.

 

How it Works: 

Through Drone It Forward: Food Bank Fill-Up, our DroneUp Hubs are partnering with 5 local charitable organizations, enabling us to give back to the very communities we serve. Through DroneUpDelivery.com, customers will have the opportunity to make non-perishable food donations online. Then, we’ll deliver the items by drone, revolutionizing the traditional means of charitable contributions. By eliminating the need for physical store visits or trips to a food bank, we aim to facilitate increased donations while fostering deeper engagement with customers within our markets.

 

How You Can Participate:

To participate in this meaningful cause, customers interested in donating to a food bank can do so by visiting DroneUpDelivery.com. By partnering with various organizations to give back to communities across the country through our established drone delivery process, food donations can happen even if the person donating is not within the delivery range. Donate to any of the five locations from anywhere in the country. 

The project is set to run from December 11th to December 31st, coinciding with our FREE DELIVERY offer for all customers during this period. This means that the cost to customers for their donation will only be the non-perishable food they purchase, with no other fees associated with the donation*, amplifying the impact of their generosity. 

 

The process is simple: 

  • Visit DroneUpDelivery.com during the campaign period (12/11-12/31)

  • Choose an organization listed below and input the associated donation address in the delivery field

  • Select the non-perishable items to donate and add them to the cart

  • Write “Food Donation” in the notes at checkout 

  • Proceed through the checkout process, taking advantage of the FREE DELIVERY offer

  • Watch as the donation is swiftly and securely delivered by drone!
