Basket Brigade FAQ page

  • My company/group wants to participate, how does it work? Go shopping from the grocery list, fill a laundry basket with the non-perishable food items, and on Saturday November 18th, 2023 bring your basket(s) to The Oviedo Volleyball Academy between 9am - 12p.
  • If I want to nominate a family how do I do that? You may nominate a family by emailing to: basketbrigade@cmg.com Please do not tell them family they have been nominated as Basket Brigade Florida (the charity) cannot guarantee delivery as it is 100% volunteer based.
  • If I know of a family that is in need, can they come pick up their own meal kit on Nov 18th. The answer is NO. There is not a pick up event.

  • If I do not have time to shop and want to make a donation, what do I do? You may donate here or mail a check to: Basket Brigade Florida, PO Box 916033, Longwood FL 32791-0633
  • If I cannot afford to buy food for meal kits, but still want to deliver, may I show up and do that? Yes, we welcome people that want to deliver. You will be able to come to the drive through, get 5 addresses and 5 baskets/boxes and deliver!
  • What if try to deliver and no one is home or I feel unsafe to deliver? The charity asks that you use common sense and either leave for the family at their door, or do a random delivery at a neighbor’s home.
