Established in 1981 in Savannah Georgia, America’s Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia is a locally inspired, volunteer-driven nonprofit food bank and community partnering organization. They work diligently to feed tens of thousands of children, senior citizens, low-income families, and people with disabilities who face hunger by distributing nutritious food to non-profit agencies and partners.

Partnerships with 237 faith-based and non-profit agencies provide emergency food assistance across Coastal Georgia.
