SOME OF OUR FAVORITE LOCAL STORIES.
Feeding hope: kandace’s story
Kandace used to volunteer at a food bank in high school. This was her first time being on the receiving end of a hunger-relief organization. After her husband and sister were laid off in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, and with three kids at home, Kandace decided to attend a Mobile Market event in her neighborhood.
“Thank you to the people who helped make this possible. You’re very appreciated.”
As she watched the Mobile Market team finish setting up, she said, “Thank you to the people who helped make this possible. You’re very appreciated.”
Feed. Nourish. Build. – Jun 9
Feed. Nourish. Build. It’s Second Harvest’s work and your impact.
Our team spent time recently more clearly defining how our hunger-relief mission shows up in local neighborhoods because of support from people like you. We developed a new framework for us to talk about the important work we do every day and how the different areas of our work overlap.
The result? Feed. Nourish. Build. Three pillars of our vital work. All are connected, and each is important and contributes to the whole.
Kids Summer Cooking Classes – Jun 2
So many life skills are learned in the kitchen — counting, following directions, teamwork, science, budgeting both time and money, problem-solving, creativity, and more! This is why Second Harvest is passionate about providing kids with the opportunity to build confidence in the kitchen. We’re excited to host two great kids cooking camps this summer in The Kitchen at Second Harvest.
