Mission: The mission of Second Harvest is to educate and involve
individuals to end hunger and alleviate malnutrition in
our communities. Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Cruz
and San Benito Counties was the first food bank in
California and is the second oldest in the nation.

Founded in 1972, Second Harvest began by distributing
food from a parking lot in Santa Cruz to groups
operating the Breakfast For Kids programs. Today,
Second Harvest distributes 5.8 million pounds of
food per year to local hungry families, children,
individuals and seniors in our community.

Notes:

Second Harvest has been a reliable source of food for families in need on the Central Coast since 1972. But our mission goes beyond simply providing food. Second Harvest staff is a leader in food provision, outreach programs to educate and activate the public around community hunger issues, nutrition programs to ensure clients have the information they need to make healthy
choices, and food security projects that look to the future of providing food sources for our neighbors on the Central Coast.
