Our community-building organization serves twenty-one counties in southeastern Georgia with the mission of feeding hungry people and strengthening communities. The mission of the food bank is to feed the hungry by distributing nutritious food to non-profit agencies and at risk elderly and youth, to assist in disaster relief, and work towards long term solutions to end the cycle of poverty and hunger.

Jewels & Jeans 2010- Huge Success



The annual "Jewels & Jeans" fundraiser for Second Harvest seems to get better and better each year! This past Thursday the event was held at the Food Bank warehouse and guests enjoyed fantastic music by the Train Wrecks, delicious bites from the Bohemian, Mrs. Wilkes, Lady & Son's, Uncle Bubbas, Lulu's, the Cookie Studio, Savannah Candy Kitchen, Big Water Catering, The Community Kitchen, and Basils. The open bars stayed busy all night while the silent auction bid sheets filled up fast! The event was completely sold out and we have already started working on ways to increase the capacity for the venue for next year to meet the overwhelming demand for tickets by the Savannah community!

The warehouse was converted into a spectacular event space by the generosity of Harvey Designs and her amazing team, along with the tireless staff at Second Harvest- thank you Montey, Eric, and the entire Crew!!
