Gleaning America's Fields ~ Feeding America's Hungry

Gleaning in New York

The Society of St. Andrew has delivered more than 36 million pounds of salvaged potatoes and other food to the needy in the state of New York through the Potato and Produce Project. This has resulted in more than 100 million servings of food going to New York's hungry.

The Society of St. Andrew has a volunteer gleaning coordinator in New York 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.
