All donations will help Forgotten Harvest feed hungry metro Detroiters. Every $10.00 donated will provide $70.00 worth of groceries or 40 meals to your neighbors.

In Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne counties, 542,000+ people live in poverty – including 174,000+ children and 70,000 seniors over the age of 65. That’s why Forgotten Harvest is dedicated to relieving hunger in metro Detroit and preventing nutritious food waste. By donating to Forgotten Harvest today, you can help us feed the hungry in metro Detroit.

As metro Detroit’s food rescue organization, Forgotten Harvest delivers 144,000 pounds of surplus food per day to local charities six days a week, providing families in need with fresh and nutritious food free of charge. We do this by rescuing millions of pounds of fresh & nutritious food from 800 food donors and delivering it to 230 emergency pantries, shelters, soup kitchens, and mobile pantries. Help us help our hungry neighbors in metro Detroit. We also have many other ways to give.
