The holiday season is about giving, not just getting. We encourage everyone to participate in special events and promotions benefiting Second Harvest.
Fundraising: Crushing it
We launched a new fundraising tool! You can now customize and share your personal fundraiser with family, friends and colleagues, as well as create teams for a friendly competition.
All Are Welcome Here
Hunger is not political — we remain focused on our mission. All clients should feel welcomed, empowered and comfortable when receiving food from Second Harvest. We respect everyone's privacy and are here to help.
Hunger Action Summit Recap
We had over 200 attendees at the 2018 Hunger Action Summit last month. If you missed the event, you can now watch a recording of it, as well as check out photos and speaker's slides.
Mission: Possible — Mac and Z
Meet Mac and Z, two Salesforce employees who are also two Second Harvest Food Bank "regulars" and have made it a personal mission to recruit as many Salesforce volunteers as possible for us!
Nutrition in Action: Food Safety
Did you know the number one cause of a foodborne disease is due to poor personal hygiene? At Second Harvest, food safety education is one of our top priorities to ensure clients are receiving safely handled and healthy foods.
