In its shutdown, the federal government has chosen to delay SNAP benefits for the month of November, and federal workers have now missed their first full paycheck.
Give today to help Forgotten Harvest get more food into the community. Every $10 you give allows us to provide $70 worth of groceries.
Forgotten Harvest is primarily a food rescue organization, but we are reaching a point where we may need to purchase food to help cover the increased need. Even before the government shutdown and SNAP loss, we were already struggling to meet the rising need in our community.
We are ready and committed to doing everything in our power to get food to those who need it, but the loss of SNAP benefits cannot be replaced by charitable organizations like ours. For every one meal a food rescue or food bank gives, SNAP gives nine.
As we work to get food out to as many people as possible during this crisis, our fundraising needs have increased. Our operational structure and partnerships allow us to secure discounted, nutritious food, but we need to raise additional funds to expand the amount of food we can give to our neighbors in need.
If you find yourself in a position where you can help, please donate today. Thank you for helping us care for our community members in the impossible position of systemic hunger, letting them know they are not alone.
We also have many other ways to give.

We want to hear from you..
