Forgotten Harvest is a non-profit organization which has pro-
vided hunger relief to the metro Detroit area since August 1990 through
a prepared and perishable surplus food program. Donated food is collected
from airlines, bakeries, caterers, diaries, hospitals, meat and produce
distributors, and other health department-approved establishments, and
transported directly to soup kitchens and shelters in our community.
Funded by: Forgotten Harvest operates under the direction of a
volunteer Board and a minimal staff. It is funded by individual, business,
and corporate contributions, grants, trusts, and fundraising events.
For the most recent fiscal year, nearly 90% of the organization's
expenditures were for the food program services. All donations to
Forgotten Harvest are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
