Heartside Gleaning Initiative's 2020 Fundraiser
Heartside Gleaning needs YOUR help! Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, food insecurity rates in Michigan are projected to rise over 20%. We must respond to this crisis by providing good food to as many families in our city as are in need and we cannot do this without your help. That is why we are asking you to please consider donating. With your help we will continue to fight food insecurity throughout Grand Rapids' diverse neighborhoods. Your donations will allow our food recipients and their families to focus on staying healthy during these stressful and unsure times. Check out the video below to see how HGI is making a difference in our community, and how you can help, too.
Buy One, Give One - Recipe BooksOur recipe book includes over 60 healthy recipes with step-by-step instructions and detailed nutrition facts! When you purchase a book, we give a matching one to one of our produce recipients.
