Harvest for Hunger is one of the largest annual, community-wide food and funds drives in the nation. It raises dollars to provide nutritious food for local hunger relief organizations in 21 counties in Northeast Ohio. The campaign is a collaborative effort of four food banks including the Greater Cleveland Food Bank, Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank, Second Harvest Food Bank of the Mahoning Valley and Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio.  Harvest for Hunger has grown from raising just over half a million pounds of food in 1992 to more than $5.4 million and nearly 300,000 pounds of food in 2019. This year we plan to raise enough for more than 22 million meals. For more information, please visit www.HarvestForHunger.org.
