Our Vision for Building a Well-nourished Community

Second Harvest Food Bank moved into its current facility in 1986, just in time for the devastating Loma Prieta earthquake. For over 20 years, we have continued to expand our services, but have now reached full capacity. Thanks to our first two phases, we now have:

  • Increased freezer and refrigeration space so that donated food is not turned away
  • A nutrition education center and kitchen
  • A consolidated office for all staff

Building Progress

Phase II has been completed! See pictures!

Fundraising for Phase III will begin soon! Stay tuned!
