Harvest for Hunger is a community-wide campaign that helps raise food and funds to help re-stock food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters throughout Crawford, Erie, Huron and Lorain counties.  The 2012 campaign will run from February 26 - April 7.


Special thanks to Giant Eagle and Heinen's who have been our long time partners in the fight against hunger in North Central Ohio, not only donating food and grocery products but raising funds through Harvest for Hunger.  They proved once again their committment to helping those at-risk for hunger with an outstanding Check Out Hunger campaign to support Harvest for Hunger raising nearly $83,000 in 2011!   In total the campaign raised over $155,000!
