4 Food Banks, 21 Counties, and 37 Million Nutritious Meals Donated

Nela Park, headquarters for GE Lighting, was home to this year’s Harvest for Hunger recognition ceremony, where – despite a previous year of difficulty and uncertainty – a new record was set for total meals donated.

At the food banks we’ve had to respond to rising need – across the country – for emergency food. I just can’t thank you all enough […] for stepping up in new and extraordinary ways.

Thanks to the effort by:

• The Greater Cleveland Food Bank
• The Akron-Canton Regional Food Bank
• The Second Harvest Food Bank of the Mahoning Valley
• The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio

Alongside the food banks, more than 220 schools, nonprofits, companies, and governmental entities – an all time high need for food assistance has been met and surpassed. At this years ceremony, the Harvest for Hunger board had more groups to thank and recognize than ever before.
