The mission of the Second Harvest Food Bank of North Florida in Jacksonville is to distribute food and grocery products to hungry Americans and to educate the public about the causes and possible solutions to problems of domestic hunger.
Gathering food. Sharing resources. Serving people in need. We Nourish Hope.
One dollar donated to Second Harvest Food Bank can generate up to $53 worth of food for our clients. By establishing relationships with large food suppliers like ConAgra, we’re able to purchase an enormous volume 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.
The Food Bank 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.
