We are incredibly grateful to the Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area for investing in local organizations through its Responsive Grants program. Harvest Stand is honored to be among this year's grant recipients.

This funding will directly support our Fighting Hunger Building Hope campaign and help make critical renovations to our new facility - creating more space, greater efficiency, and increased capacity to serve our neighbors facing food insecurity.

Thank you to the Community Foundation for partnering with us to build a stronger, healthier community. Together, we're creating a place where hope can grow and more families can access the support they need.

We distributed $255,000 through our responsive grant program to fund initiatives for families, housing, food access, and youth programs.

A huge thank you to Walters Gardens for serving as our Golf Cart Sponsor for our upcoming Driving Out Hunger Golf Outing!

Walters Gardens continues to be an incredible partner in this work - most recently as the generous host and donor behind our annual Plant Sale, which served as a major fundraiser for Harvest Stand. Their ongoing support helps make so much possible for the families we serve.

We are grateful for partners like Walters Gardens who continue to invest in our mission in meaningful ways, both on and off the course.

We're looking forward to another great Golf Outing, now just over a week away! Thank you to all of our sponsors, teams, and supporters helping us drive out hunger together.

About a month ago on a Saturday morning, we hosted a special Board & Family Serve Day at the pantry - and it was such a meaningful time together.

Our board members, along with their families, jumped right in to serve. From cleaning carts and organizing clothing to sorting food and tackling a variety of projects, so much was accomplished in just a few hours.

Even more than the work that got done, it was a great opportunity to connect - building relationships, meeting each other's families, and serving side by side. It's clear how invested this group is in the ministry, and we're so grateful for their leadership and heart to serve.
