Since 1983, A Just Harvest has provided a nutritious meal to anyone in need – no questions asked – in partnership with more than 35 various religious congregations and community organizations. Together we ensure that, on any given night, as many as two hundred people from around the metropolitan area get enough to eat. (The highest number of people we have served to date on a single night is 231.)
A Just Harvest welcomes people from all walks of life who are confronted with the choice between paying the rent and putting food on the table or paying for medication and getting enough to eat. It is an especially important resource for:
- Seniors living on a fixed income
- Homeless people
- Struggling Veterans
- People who have lost their jobs
- Workers whose jobs don’t pay enough to cover basic needs
- Children of all ages, including providing snacks to local after school programs
