Impact of your donation

We want to hear from you..

People support Forgotten Harvest for a variety of reasons.

Some of our donors may support us because they own a restaurant. Others mention that they give in honor of their grandma who always fed the homeless in her community. Still others donate because they want to make sure the “extra” food from their local grocery store goes to those who need it.

We’d love to hear YOUR story–it might help us find other supporters like you!

We are grateful for the generous support of our community which sustains Forgotten Harvest as we boldly pursue our mission to relieve hunger in metro Detroit by rescuing and redistributing surplus food. If you have any questions, please read the FAQs.
