America's Second Harvest
 PROFILE
For those not fortunate enough to reap the first harvest, there's America's Second Harvest, the largest US hunger-relief charity. The not-for-profit organization collects 1.4 billion pounds of surplus food (donated by food growers, distributors, manufacturers, and retailers) and distributes it to more than 50,000 charities through a network of some 200 food banks in the US and Puerto Rico. More than one billion pounds of food and groceries help some 26 million recipients every year. Second Harvest is stepping up its online relief efforts, promoting several hunger relief Web sites and charity campaigns. It boosted its reach in 2000 through a merger with fellow charity Foodchain, operator of 140 food rescue centers.
