Second Harvest Food Bank of the Mahoning Valley provides food in 3 counties: Columbiana, Mahoning and Trumbull County. We do not distribute food directly from our facility, but we operate a number of public food distributions through our member agencies and Mobile Pantry.
Supporting Our Community Together
The Food Bank serves as a storehouse for large quantities of donated food and USDA commodities that are distributed daily to 160 hunger-relief organizations and programs located throughout our tri-county service area. These partners include church pantries, homeless shelters and meal sites, shelters for battered women, school pantries and after-school programs. All member agencies must hold a 501(c)(3) designation from the IRS and have feeding hungry people as a major component of their program.
Second Harvest relies heavily on the generous support of volunteers from the community. Volunteers gave 11,257 hours of service in 2024, which equals 10 part-time jobs. In addition to volunteer support, the Food Bank is supported financially by individuals, companies, grants, foundations and the United Way. We are also the recipient of in-kind services from several local businesses.
Building A Hunger-Free Community
2024 Statistics
Second Harvest is committed to doing whatever it takes to build a hunger-free community. That means distributing nutritious food to nearly every neighborhood in Mahoning Valley, leveraging every available food resource, and collaborating with organizations and people who share our belief that no one goes hungry.
