We would like to thank the following organizations,
who regularly contribute food to feed the hungry without money:
Costco
EVOO Market, Borders Cafe
Oakes Produce
Pepperridge Farms
Pizza Hut |
Publix Supermarkets
Ritchey's Produce
Starbucks Coffee
The Fresh Market
Wild Oats
|
We would also like to thank the many generous people who call
us spontaneously to donate their surplus foods.
We currently deliver food to shelters, soup kitchens and food pantries
in Collier and Southern Lee Counties, and we invite similar organizations
to contact us. Due to liability issues,
neither Collier Harvest nor our volunteers may deliver food directly
to any individuals, for this reason we work directly with agencies
and groups who have a 501-C 3 status. In addition, we require that
all of our food be passed along to the needy at no charge to the
individual.
Charitable programs wishing to have food delivered
by Collier Harvest volunteers must provide documentation of their
non-profit status. Organizations must be willing to follow Safe
Food Handling procedures and sign the required Release of Liability
forms. Once the paperwork has been completed and returned, the
organization's request must then go before our review committee.
