Boston Foodbank AdLent Calendar

This Lent, we’re inviting you to make a meaningful difference with our AdLent Calendar challenge. From 5 March to 17 April 2025, you can join supporters across the Borough of Boston in donating one item each day to help local families facing hardship. As demand for food bank support continues to grow in our community, your participation matters more than ever.

Our AdLent Calendar transforms the traditional Lenten period of reflection into a practical opportunity to help others. For each of the 40 days of Lent, simply donate one food item from our calendar, ticking them off as you go. It’s perfect for individuals looking for a meaningful Lent activity, families teaching children about giving, or groups at workplaces, schools and churches wanting to make a collective impact. By Easter, you’ll have gathered a box of essential items that will directly support people in crisis.

It really is that simple… download a calendar here, grab a box and start ticking an item off a day. When you have completed all 40 days, deliver to Boston Foodbank or St Botolph’s Church (Boston Stump) to help those in need in our community.

Thank you in anticipation for your generous gift this Lent.
