Helping Neighbors Feed Neighbors
Second Harvest provides food and basic necessities to 43,000 people a month including children, seniors and working poor families trying to make ends meet. We do this through a network of 160 non-profit agencies and programs.
Due to the generosity of our community and food industry partners, Second Harvest receives $8.5 million worth of food donations a year. We distribute this food - more than 50% is fresh fruits and vegetables - to our neighbors in need. Every dollar you donate provides food for five meals.
