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!

Many Ways to Help
Workplace or School: Encourage your company to join the hundreds of others and run an employee food drive. As a student or teacher at a local school encourage your school to get involved. The most needed items are the "Super Six": cereal, peanut butter, canned vegetables, tuna fish, soup and beef stew.
Newspaper, Radio & Local Stores: On February 26, 2012 look for the Harvest for Hunger insert in your Sunday edition of The Morning Journal, The Chronicle Telegram and Sandusky Register. The papers will also be running ads that can be clipped out and mailed. Our radio partners this year are WEOL, WCPZ, WOHF, WMJK, WLEC, WLKR and WKFM. Buckeye Cablevision and Payne, Nickles & Co are drop-off centers once again in Erie and Huron Counties. Stop by a local Giant Eagle or Heinen's stores to make a contribution through Check Out Hunger. Shoppers are asked to make a donation at the cash register or drop off food donations at local Giant Eagle or Heinen's stores.
