On Giving Tuesday, 100 Who Care Del Webb Lake Oconee members presented Second Harvest, Inc. with a generous donation to help them fight hunger. Second Harvest’s goal is to help eliminate hunger in Greene and Putnam Counties and ensure that ‘nobody goes to bed hungry’. They do this through weekly food rescue, pick-up, and delivery to those in need, monthly centralized food distribution to those in need and weekend backpack meal distribution to children in need. Second Harvest is entirely run by volunteers and relies on generous donations from local organizations, businesses and individuals. For more information or to volunteer or donate contact Reid Conklin 678-296-4921/reidconklin@me.com. Pictured are Reid Conklin, Second Harvest; Betty Aubin and Gary Richards, 100 Who Care DWLO.
