In Central Florida, one in seven of our neighbors faces hunger, because of a lack of affordable housing, education, or working a low-wage job. Add inflation and unplanned medical bills to the mix, and it’s too much to bear for strained budgets.
With the nutritious food they need, our neighbors, like Annette, can focus on training for a better job, finding stable housing, and raising healthy kids.
Annette is a single mom. She’s juggling higher bills, gas prices, and the cost of food. “When I went to the grocery store, I could only fill one bag with food before running out of money. That won’t last us very long.“
At one of Second Harvest’s feeding partners, she left with a trunk filled with groceries, including chicken, canned soups, beans, and fresh produce like cabbage, apples, potatoes, and watermelon.
“You give me the peace of mind to be able to go home and feed my family today and for days to come. This gives me hope. Thank you.”
Thousands of families in our community are reaching out for help. Will you give today and help twice as many families?
With generous friends like you, Second Harvest Food Bank is feeding inspiration, change, achievement, health — & families facing hunger. Thank you for making this possible!
