The mission of Second Harvest Food Bank is to feed hungry people and work to solve hunger issues in our community. Second Harvest works with more than 400 partner agencies throughout our 46-country service area in Middle and West Tennessee to distribute food to those in need. Hunger is a big problem, and we need everyone's help to solve this issue. According to the USDA, an estimated 50.1 million Americans are at risk of hunger, and almost 16.7 million U.S. children under 18 are food insecure. In Tennessee, one in six adults and one in four children struggle with hunger.
