Spring 2026 PRFD Results!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for The Spring 2026 Punk Rock Food Drive or donated online!

Thanks to your efforts and attendance, we raised 337 pounds of food and $2,215 for the North County Food Bank. That adds up to approximately 4,700 meals for individuals and families who may not know where their next meal is coming from!

A HUGE thanks goes to Pour House for lending us their lovely venue and patio to let us do what we do!

All the bands killed it, per usual, and played their hearts out for us all in support of this community!

Finally, thank you as always to everyone who volunteers for Punk Rock Food Drive and keeps the wheels from falling off. From setup to breakdown, working the door, and everything that comes up in between, we couldn’t do any of this without you, and we’re glad we don’t have to!

16th Annual PRFD Results

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Punk Rock Food Drive 16!

Through your efforts gathering food donations, attending the event, participating in our raffle and auctions, and purchasing PRFD merch we were able to present The North County Food Bank with the following:

$6,183
2,076 pounds of food
Totaling 14,096 meals!

That’s enough food to feed a family of four for over three years!

We strive to provide an entertaining and enjoyable concert experience each year to produce these great outcomes.  Without your attendance and participation, it just wouldn’t be possible.

Can’t wait to get started on next year’s event and do it all over again!

 

15th Annual PRFD Results

The 15th Annual Thanksgiving Punk Rock Food Drive raised over 2,500 pounds of food and we were able to present the North County Food Bank with $6,780!

Attendees raised food all over the County and brought it to our annual concert at Belching Beaver Oceanside. Raffles, auctions, merch and ticket sales, all combined to produce the most funds we’ve ever raised at a PRFD!

All that food and money equates to approximately 15,700 meals for individuals and families in our community!

Thank you to all the sponsors, bands, attendees, volunteers, vendors, brewery staff and customers that made this possible!

PRFD 14 Results!

Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Punk Rock Food Drive 14 campaign. Whether you joined us for the show or donated online, your contributions will be felt in the bellies of folks who didn’t know where their next meal was coming from. $4,390 and 1,525 pounds of food were raised and presented to the North County Food Bank. That all adds up to 10,109 meals for families and individuals in San Diego County!

The food bank recently adjusted the amount of meals that a dollar will provide and as you can probably guess, it’s gone down. Increased food costs, fuel costs for fleet, and rising overhead have brought the meal conversion from 5 meals per dollar down to 2.

This is unfortunate for a lot of reasons and it illustrates the need for us to keep it going and try to find creative and helpful ways to escalate our fundraising efforts. It also points to an increased importance on community-based organizers everywhere to help bridge gaps where they exist for those in need around us.

We know there is such a great crew around us each and every year making Punk Rock Food Drive an effort worth pursuing. Thank you for your continued love and support!
