Hurricane Milton has left a trail of devastation in our community, and thousands of our neighbors are struggling to access basic necessities like food and clean water. As they work to rebuild their lives, Harry Chapin Food Bank is stepping up to distribute vital resources across the hardest-hit areas.

Your support can provide immediate relief to families in need. Rene & Karen Lewin will generously match every dollar donated—up to $10,000 – between now and November 11. This means your gift will have double the impact, providing twice the food, water, and hope to those affected by the storm.
Now more than ever, our community needs us. Join us in helping our neighbors recover from this crisis.
Why Support Harry Chapin Food Bank?
Every day, thousands of children, seniors, and families in Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry, and Lee counties face hunger. With approximately 70% of this area classified as food deserts, access to nutritious food is a daily struggle for many. That’s where we step in. Harry Chapin Food Bank provides millions of pounds of food each year, ensuring that the people we serve don’t have to choose between food and other essentials.
In 2024 alone, we distributed over 39.5 million pounds of food, including fresh produce, to those facing hunger. But we can’t do it without your help. With reductions in emergency funding and increased demand due to economic pressures, your virtual fundraising efforts are more critical than ever.
