8.9% of residents in Washtenaw County rely on SNAP benefits to feed their families. That is upwards of 30,000 of our friends and neighbors who are experiencing disruptions in their ability to access food. Our friends and neighbors need our support urgently. This campaign will be ongoing.
In Support of Food Gatherers
Our Mission: Food Gatherers exists to alleviate hunger and eliminate its causes in our community.
We rescue local food and leverage state and national food resources for hunger relief. We lead a network of hunger relief providers and engage the public in the fight against hunger. We create and sustain innovative new food programs in response to emerging needs. We recognize that hunger will not be solved through the provision of food alone, so we advocate for policies and system changes to create an equitable food system.
