Share the Bounty with Ampleharvest.org

All too often, a person who needs food assistance cannot find fresh produce at their local food pantry. At the same time, millions of Americans grow more food in their backyard gardens than they can actually use. The New Jersey-based organization Ampleharvest.org is trying to fix this problem.

Ampleharvest.org is working to fight hunger by connecting farmers and gardeners with their local hunger-relief organizations. The goal is to ensure that excess produce is donated to people who need it, instead of being left to rot in the garden.

Visit Ampleharvest.org today to register your organization and connect with local growers! 

Did You Know?

Pounds Per Person in Poverty (PPIP) 

Pounds Per Person in Poverty (PPIP) is a simple calculation that Good Shepherd Food-Bank uses to measure the average amount of food distributed to an individual in poverty in a year. This measurement is important because it allows us to address equitable distribution. Good Shepherd Food-Bank believes that where you live should not limit your access to adequate and nutritious food.

Good Shepherd Food-Bank will be focusing on measuring PPIP in 2011 and we will need your help to gather accurate data. Together, we can make sure that Mainers are getting an adequate supply of food on a regular basis. 

Fundraising Opportunity: CLYNK

The Hannaford Community Cash program powered by CLYNK is a new fundraising tool for charities to raise donations from their local communities. The program allows you to run a year-round bottle drive with significantly less effort than you might think!

Just sign up at www.clynk.com and purchase bags that are marked with a code for your organization. Distribute these bags to your supporters to use for collecting bottles. When these bags are returned to a CLYNK bottle redemtion station at participating Hannaford stores, all proceeds will benefit your organization.

Visit www.clynk.com/communitycash.aspx or call Hannaford Community Cash at 866-228-8454 ext. 101 for more information.
