About Harvest for Hunger
Harvest for Hunger—one of the largest annual, community-wide food and funds drives in the nation—provides critical resources to local hunger relief organizations in twenty-one counties in Northeast and North Central Ohio. Thanks to a very generous community, last year’s campaign raised the dollars and food needed to provide over 10 million meals to individuals and families who were struggling to make ends meet.
Harvest for Hunger 2010 is the most important campaign to date, as the downturn in the economy, rising unemployment, and higher food and heating bills are forcing more people to turn to local hot meal programs, food pantries and shelters for assistance. We must provide more food this year, and we can with your help.
