My older son's school just did a food drive last week. We sent in:

8 boxes of sugar free Jello
2 boxes of instant oatmeal
2 canned whole chickens
12 boxes mac & cheese
12 cans assorted veggies (corn, carrots & beans)
4 containers of Crystal Light powder (4 tubs in each)

The total for us to buy everything was under $20 and I figured the extras like Crystal Light & jello would be a welcome change from the usual. The entire class also donated a total of $187 to the food bank for buying things like diapers & formula.
