Fishers’ 2025 MLK Jr. Day celebration offers residents ways to give back and celebrate the message of kindness from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. With our local food pantries experiencing an increase in demand and a decrease in supply, the City of Fishers is holding a community-wide food drive.

Last year, our incredible community donated 20,000 lbs of food. Let’s get in the spirit of service and donate even more this year!

Monday, January 20: 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. | Fishers Kroger locations

Donate at Kroger locations:

• Kroger (9799 E. 116th Street)
• Kroger (11700 Olio Road)
• Kroger (7272 Fishers Crossing Drive)
