Nourishing Communities byFeeding Hungry People
A Member of: 
End Hunger
It all started with a dream and an idea. The dream was that no one should go hungry while food was going to waste. The idea was to create a distribution network that would provide local non-profit agencies with a low cost, reliable source of food for hungry people. Today we accomplish this mission through:
Food Distribution
Gleaners is a vital link between available food and those who need it most. Gleaners collects, warehouses, repacks and distributes many millions of pounds of food for over 400 local partners.
Government Programs
Learn about Gleaners’ efforts to promote government programs that provide food assistance to children, families and seniors.
