WHAT A WASTE!
Some estimates indicate up to 40% of America's food supply goes to waste. That's over 100 billion pounds of food! At the same time, 49 million people are at risk of going hungry. The Heartside community is no exception. |
HGI has distributed over
SERVINGS of fresh produce since 2014, totaling over
POUNDS!

Through the support of GRnow.com, 13 local coffee shops, and all participants, $1700 was raised for Heartside Gleaning Initiative in the sold-out 2017 1st Annual Grand Rapids Coffee Crawl.
THANK YOU
to the people and organizations that made this possible. We are lucky to be supported by such a generous community!
