Business support through surplus food donations provide the foundation for the efforts of Second Harvest of Greater St. Joseph.

The food industry has generously answered our call not to
let food go waste!  Local food retailers and wholesalers help to feed people in need by donating to Second Harvest through our food donation programs that are quick, safe and cost-effective!

Second Harvest accepts donations of dry, refrigerated and frozen foods, as well as household goods and personal hygiene items. Second Harvest will pick up the product from your facility at no charge. We adhere to strict food safety guidelines and provide complete product tracking, including recall capabilities.

Additionally, our Food Rescue Program is a quick, easy and tax-deductible program established for restaurants, cafeterias and special event organizers.

Second Harvest makes it easy for you. We provide storage containers, schedule pick-ups that don’t interrupt your business and provide a donation receipt. We’ll be on our way with your donation to help feed the hungry in our community. 

All food industry donors realize the
tax benefits for their generosity, and national Good Samaritan laws protects donors from civil and criminal liability when donations are made in good faith. As a 501 (c)(3) organization, Second Harvest complies with all IRS record keeping responsibilities and will provide you with the documentation you need to realize the tax benefits of your donation.

Help feed your bottom line and the hungry by making a commitment to donate today.
