Second Harvest Gleaners Food Bank of West Michigan

Since 1981, Second Harvest Gleaners Food Bank of West Michigan has served as West Michigan's regional nonprofit clearinghouse for saved, donated food on its way from the food industry to churches and charity agencies that assist needy people. The food we distribute is drawn primarily from the surpluses and edible/useable errors of local and national food and grocery products companies. Through our seven warehouses, we serve over 1,200 food pantries, homeless shelters, soup kitchens, domestic violence shelters, rescue missions, and other charity agencies across 40 Michigan counties. In 2007, we distributed 20.3 million pounds of food and other goods. Second Harvest Gleaners Food Bank Of West Michigan was founded in 1981 to channel donated food from the food industry to charity agencies, which then provide that food at no charge to needy and at-risk families.
