To help bring awareness to local hunger here in the Midlands, Harvest Hope will be partnering with actor, James Jude Courtney, a South Carolina native, for a virtual food drive and meet and greet opportunity.
Courtney, who is deeply committed to supporting his community in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, is encouraging community members to donate monetarily or via a food drive. You can donate non-perishable food items such as canned vegetables, canned and pouch proteins, pop top meals, macaroni and cheese, and peanut butter, which will help us in our ongoing efforts to provide relief after Hurricane Helene.
A meet-and-greet opportunity is also available Wednesday, October 16, from 12 - 1 p.m. at Harvest Hope Food Bank. Anyone who brings a food drive donation from our most needed disaster relief item list can get an autograph.
Most needed items:
- Microwavable Pop-Top Meals
- Pop-Top Cans of Soup
- Pop-Top Canned Goods (vegetables, beans)
- Canned or Pouch Proteins Packed in Water (tuna, chicken)
- Snack Items (granola bars, peanut butter, crackers)

In Support of Harvest Hope Food Bank
Harvest Hope is South Carolina’s largest food bank, providing over 20 million meals on average to neighbors in need across the Midlands, Pee Dee and Upstate. Harvest Hope is on a mission to eliminate hunger and food insecurity in South Carolina. We rescue nutritious food from stores throughout the state and distribute it to food pantries, shelters, and soup kitchens.
We operate programs that provide food for our most vulnerable citizens – children, seniors, and rural residents who don’t have access to grocery stores. We also run our own emergency food pantries in Greenville and Columbia where anyone in need can get a week’s supply of groceries for free.
Harvest Hope began in 1981 as the result of a shared vision of business leaders and the faith community, who set out to provide for the hungry in Columbia. Since then, Harvest Hope has increased its mission to feed the hungry across 20 counties in South Carolina.
