Many, if not most of, our members do experience food insecurity, so they look forward to ‘Grocery Thursdays.’ The healthy food items provided by Second Harvest are very much appreciated, as generally these are the most expensive and unaffordable, but to most of us are basic staples.
We have many families that have been renovicted, living in hotels with little children. It breaks my heart, but we’re able to give them some relief. Maybe they can even save a little for first and last month’s rent [with food support] and find somewhere new. Thanks to Second Harvest, we’re getting food to feed individuals, single parents and full families who are working two jobs.
Food that we receive through Second Harvest has a really significant impact on the community. Without it, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. It really is the backbone of our programs.
