Through Second Harvest, we've actually been able to acquire really strong donations on a weekly basis. Without those donations, we would not be able to do what we're doing ... We know that whenever we get food it is going to go to people in need and that's what we try and do here at Parker Street: give the best we can to the people who need it the most.
