Gleaning America's Fields ~ Feeding America's Hungry

 

 

Gleaning in Illinois
The Society of St. Andrew has delivered more than 9.2 million pounds of salvaged potatoes and other food to the needy in the state of Illinois through the Potato and Produce Project. This has resulted in approximately 27.6 million servings of food going to Illinois' hungry.
The Society of St. Andrew has a volunteer gleaning coordinator in Illinois who also serves as a Hunger Relief Advocate (HRAs).  HRAs are called to serve within their states as advocates, educators, and enablers of action to relieve hunger in America. Their three-fold goal is:
  • Bring people into hands-on ministry with the hungry and the poor.
  • Advocate to churches on behalf of the nation’s hungry and the poor.
  • Raise funding resources to sustain the HRA program.
