A Thanksgiving food drive from Score 420 and the Rio Grande Food Project supports New Mexico families facing heightened seasonal food insecurity with community-led donations.

Albuquerque, United States, November 24, 2025 -- Score 420 has announced a new Thanksgiving food drive in collaboration with the Rio Grande Food Project, supporting food assistance efforts for households experiencing food insecurity across New Mexico. The initiative brings community partners together during a period when local food banks historically face heightened demand for essential items. All donated goods collected through the drive will be distributed directly to the Rio Grande Food Project and other regional food bank partners.

Food insecurity remains a significant challenge in New Mexico. According to Feeding America, an estimated 1 in 5 children in the state experiences food insecurity each year, highlighting the ongoing need for consistent community support and structured food donation efforts. Local organizations report increased strain during the holiday season, when families often face rising expenses and limited access to additional resources. With Thanksgiving approaching, food banks throughout the region frequently identify staple items as their most-requested donations.

In recent years, Score 420 has contributed to statewide efforts supported by food banks such as the New Mexico Association of Food Banks, The Community Pantry in Gallup, The Farmington Food Pantry, Casa de Peregrinos, and the Food Bank of Eastern New Mexico. This year’s partnership with the Rio Grande Food Project reinforces attention to the needs of Albuquerque-area communities, particularly those affected by rising food costs, recent SNAP cuts, and reduced access to fresh meals.

Representatives from the dispensary note that the company is committed to creating accessible donation opportunities and ensuring the efficient transfer of contributed goods to partner organizations. Customers who donate food items will be further incentivized by exclusive discounts on their purchases. Score 420 hopes that this will encourage even more people to give back, turning "one good deed into a great deal".

The Rio Grande Food Project, serving as the lead distribution partner, has operated in Albuquerque for more than three decades. Its staff reports that seasonal donation drives offer meaningful reinforcement during the final quarter of the year, when demand traditionally peaks. Food donations collected through partnerships such as this one help the organization maintain reliable supplies and reduce shortages that can affect high-need families in the weeks surrounding Thanksgiving.

As New Mexico’s hunger-relief organizations prepare for increased demand, this collaboration between Score 420 and the Rio Grande Food Project means that more households are able to access the resources required for stable, nutritious meals throughout the holiday season.
