Thank you for changing lives. Your support has made an incredible impact during these difficult times for our neighbors facing hunger in Central Florida.

Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida recently held a virtual impact update to connect with donors and supporters and share stories of the kids, families and seniors who are reaching out for help with food assistance while recovering from financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

You can watch the video recording of the session featuring Dave Krepcho, President/CEO for Second Harvest, and Peg Cornwell, Chair-Elect for Second Harvest’s Board of Directors. The conversation covered the following topics:

  • How your support helps provide nutritious meals
  • The pandemic recovery effort
  • The future of the food bank
  • Ways to continue making an impact

Your generosity makes it possible for Second Harvest Food Bank to provide 250,000 meals every day in our community. Your kindness and giving spirit provide hope for those who need it most.

Thank you for making a difference.
