The Sherwood Ford food drive with Lakeland Ridge School to fill a Ford

Fill a Ford and Help Impact Lives

Join Sherwood Ford’s annual community food drive in Sherwood Park 

Making a difference, one truckload at a time 

Sherwood Ford is proud to once again host our annual Fill a Ford food drive in Sherwood Park, in partnership with Lakeland Ridge School and the Strathcona Food Bank. This year, we’re also excited to have Sherwood Powersports & Marine as a collection partner. The mission is simple: fill the bed of a Ford truck with non-perishable food donations to support local families in need. Every donation will be delivered to the Strathcona Food Bank, where it will be distributed throughout our community. 

Plus, when you take a test drive at Sherwood Ford, our dealership will make a cash donation to the Strathcona Food Bank on your behalf. That means you can help simply by getting behind the wheel of a new Ford. 

Donations will be accepted at all participating locations until October 31st, 2025. Plus, there will be a special bonus for donations on the 18th from 1 to 3 PM. Scroll down to learn more!
