Capital Campaign Press Conference

Tuesday, February 2nd, Second Harvest launched a capital campaign to buy a new warehouse.

The new warehouse will double the floor space and have three times the freezer and cooler space, which will allow us to double the amount of food, especially fresh produce and meat items available for those in need throughout the Big Bend.

“America is the richest country on the face of the earth and way, way too many people go to bed hungry," Congressman Boyd said at the kick off. Boyd was honored at the event for donating the proceeds from the 2009 Boyd Family Charity Dinner, over $100,000, towards the Capital Campaign. Boyd’s generous gift jump started the $750,000 campaign, of which 40% has now been raised.
