Flags 4 Food
Fly the flag, feed a family
Join the local fight against poverty and hunger right here in Dane County
Donate $75 for an annual subscription to Flags-4-Food and you'll receive a beautiful American flag planted in your front yard on three patriotic holidays: Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day. All proceeds go to end hunger and fight poverty in our community. We have 400 families and businesses signed up for this popular fundraiser, which has raised money for more than 300,000 meals.
BPNN's Flags-4-Food initiative is a flag rental subscription. On each of the 3 flag holidays, volunteers will install a 3’x5’ flag on a sturdy 8' flagpole in your front yard. Unless otherwise agreed, flags will be located a uniform distance in your neighborhood, approximately 6-10 feet from the curb or sidewalk. Installation requires that we insert a short piece of rebar approximately 10-12 inches into the ground to secure the flagpole. Everything is removed that evening. Please let us know if there are near-surface underground cables, wires, etc. on your registration form.
We offer flag subscriptions in the following areas:
- All city of Verona and Fitchburg neighborhoods
- Town of Verona and Paoli
- Hawk’s Landing neighborhoods
