Donate | Second Harvest

Every $1 donation provides 5 meals.

Every dollar helps rescue healthy, surplus food and deliver it to people who need it most.

At Second Harvest, we recover good food before it goes to
waste—feeding communities and protecting the planet.

Your donation = real food, real impact.

our partners

Siloam Mission

Food is a basic requirement of life. The impact of this partnership with Second Harvest has been that we've been able to serve really high quality food on a large scale. For us, serving 1,500 meals a day would become extremely expensive as an organization to keep the caliber of food that we have. And the contribution allows the staff to get creative and make new meals.

The Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Society of Yukon

The Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Society of Yukon supports people who are living with or suspected of having fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in housing, justice, employment and food security. Having food and other items on hand to give to our service users is a great way to encourage them to come into the office regularly. With regular communication, we can build the relationships necessary to encourage change among our service users. With the donations from Second Harvest, we always have something to give our folks even when funding is tight.

Community Food Resource Network

Second Harvest has contributed to our goals by allowing us to use our funds in different areas and on different projects. The money we save via our Second Harvest food donations has allowed us to purchase extra fruits and vegetables for our clients as well as keep our own garden growing. In addition, we have chosen to support our local school in their endeavours to supply "shelf-stable" meal kits to students to take home.
