Topic: E&D Food Scarcity with Harvest Hope Food Bank
Committee Member: Courtenay B. Mims
With nearly a quarter of Columbia residents living in poverty, many are struggling to feed their families. This is compounded by grocery store closures, particularly in North Columbia where 70% of residents lack access to healthy and affordable food. Join E & D to learn more about food scarcity and pack food bags to make a difference with Harvest Hope Food Bank.
Together, we are building a hunger-free tomorrow.
Thursday, April 21st
6-8 pm
Please wear closed-toed shoes and comfortable clothing.

In Support of Harvest Hope Food Bank
Harvest Hope is South Carolina’s largest food bank, providing over 25 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.
