2026 Annual Jars of Love to kick off benefiting hunger relief!

Peanut butter packs a lot of nutrition into one jar. It’s high in protein, healthy fats, and calories that help keep kids and adults feeling full longer. It doesn’t need refrigeration, has a long shelf life, and works for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a quick snack. For families facing food insecurity, peanut butter is reliable, filling, and easy to use, making it one of the most requested items at food banks!

Help fight hunger right here in northeast Indiana with the Jars of Love Peanut Butter Drive in partnership with Lutheran Health Network! Drop off your peanut butter jars at the designated locations below, or donate securely online to benefit hunger relief.
