About This Cause
Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee has led the effort to end hunger in Northeast Tennessee for 27 years, and is the only food bank serving the eight-county region incorporating Carter, Greene, Hancock, Hawkins, Johnson, Sullivan, Unicoi and Washington counties. The Food Bank’s vision is that no one in Northeast Tennessee will go hungry due to lack of access to food. The mission of Second Harvest Food Bank is to feed the hungry by securing and distributing food and grocery products to regional agencies that provide services to the needy, ill, children, and elderly. Many of these agencies depend on Second Harvest for 100% of their food needs. In addition to serving its agencies, Second Harvest administers programs that directly serve individuals and families at risk for hunger and malnutrition. In Fiscal Year 2013, the Food Bank distributed 8.8 million pounds of food to hungry families and individuals in Northeast Tennessee (equivalent to over 7.3 million meals) through its partner agencies, programs and services. Food is currently provided for an average of 39,000 people per month through Second Harvest Food Bank’s agencies, programs and services, the highest number of people the Food Bank has ever served.
