Financial Support
One of the most effective ways to help provide food for hungry children, seniors, homeless, disabled, working poor families and others in crisis is to make a financial contribution to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida.
We are proud of the fact that 97.4% of all financial contributions go directly to programs feeding our hungry neighbors rather than to administration or fundraising (Source: IRS form 990).
For every dollar donated, Second Harvest Food Bank can provide up to $9 in food value for people in need. Imagine having that kind of multiplier effect on your own grocery bill each week! Your gift is a powerful investment in hope.
Our organization is a tax-exempt charitable organization under IRS 501(c)(3), which means your contribution may be deductible (please consult a tax professional to assess deductibility for specific contributions).
There are a variety of easy ways to make a difference by giving a financial gift.
There can be great tax benefits for donating appreciated securities that you've held for more than 12 months. Contact: Greg Higgerson at 407.514.1021 or via email:

Matching gift programs are a wonderful way for employees to stretch their charitable dollars at no cost to themselves. Simply ask your company’s human resource office, personnel department or community relations office if your company has a matching gift program. If so, ask for a matching gift form.
