Munson Healthcare Food Donation Requests
Thank you for your interest in providing food for Munson Healthcare team members! Our goal in accepting food donations is to recognize the hard work of our healthcare team throughout all of Munson Healthcare’s community hospitals.
Food Donation Guidelines
Please review the following guidelines below for all food donations. These have been approved by Infection Prevention and Infectious Disease to keep our patients, staff, and community as safe as possible.
- In order to remain compliant with IRS requirements, we cannot accept restaurant / other gift card donations for staff.
- Carry-out meals from restaurants are preferred.
- All meals, sides, and desserts must be individually wrapped.
For example: one sandwich wrapped, or one to-go box of food. - Pizza is approved as long as proper hand hygiene is followed.
- Homemade baked good items, such as cookies and brownies, must be individually wrapped.
- A hospital staff member must meet the food delivery person at the scheduled time and location (due to COVID-19 safety concerns, delivery person cannot deliver food into the hospital). All visitors are expected to maintain 6-foot distancing and wear a mask when delivering food.
Please note: hospital staff members are not permitted to leave the hospital to pick up donated food from a restaurant or business. - All meals donated must be the same type to ensure fairness for staff.
I.e. 10 burritos for 10 staff members; not a mix (3 breakfast burritos, 2 sandwiches, and 5 soups for 10 staff members).
Efforts will be made to provide meals to all hospital departments and team members. Requests to donate food to a specific hospital department will not be accepted. Donated meals will be distributed to one or several departments on a rolling basis to make sure all departments receive recognition and appreciation.
