About Us

The mission of Second Harvest North Florida is to distribute food and grocery products to hungry people and to educate the public about the causes and possible solutions to problems of domestic hunger.

One dollar donated to Second Harvest generates six meals, or the equivalent of two days of food for a person in need. By establishing relationships with large food suppliers like ConAgra and others, Second Harvest is able to purchase an enormous volume of food and stretch each dollar incredibly far. And because of our lean staff and the generosity of our volunteers, more of every donation goes directly to our programs — not to overhead.

Second Harvest serves nonprofit agencies in the following 18 counties: Alachua, Baker, Bradford, Clay, Columbia, Dixie, Duval, Flagler, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Lafayette, Levy, Madison, Nassau, Putnam, St. Johns, Suwannee and Union.

If you are hungry or otherwise in need of assistance:
