Congressman Buddy Carter, Michele Chivore, Campaign Director for the Georgia Food Bank Association and Lucy Melcher from Share Our Strength joined Mary Jane Crouch and board members from America’s Second Harvest to celebrate the Bull Street Library as a new Summer 2015 feeding site. The library was a wonderful resource for food for the neighborhood children as well as relief from the heat with hundreds of books to read. Share Our Strength celebrated with orange shades for summer fun!

Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia opened a branch warehouse in Brunswick in 2010. This additional warehouse has enabled the food bank to better serve the community of southeast Georgia by providing more fresh and frozen food to our partner agencies. The Southeast Branch of Second Harvest serves the counties of Brantley, Camden, Charlton, Glynn, McIntosh, and Wayne.
The Southeast Branch works with roughly 78 agencies to distribute more than 2.2 million pounds of food a year to individuals and families who are experiencing food insecurity. This amount of food represents savings of more than $3.8 million in wholesale food costs. If we can pass these savings on to our partner agencies, they can provide more services in the communities they serve.
