Second Harvest provides food to over 300 partner agencies from the very small to the very large. Some operate soup kitchens or food pantries. Others include shelters, human service organizations and nonprofit organizations that serve meals or distribute food packages. Food is also made available to organizations that serve disaster relief sites. They all count on Second Harvest as a reliable source of dry food like pasta and cereal, all manner of canned food, fresh or frozen meats and produce, even sundries like paper towels and cleaning supplies. Agencies must also meet health standards for storing and handling the food received. Second Harvest’s staff visits each organization to help them learn and apply appropriate, cost-effective methods for safe food service handling and distribution.

Nonprofit agencies and churches that feed hungry people are encouraged to apply for membership with Second Harvest. Partner agencies must be an established nonprofit or church with a substantial program for distributing food packages or serving meals to the ill, infants, or needy.
