The money will help them buy fresh produce to distribute to families in Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties.

"It's so hard for many people here in the bay area to make the math work every single month. So many of the people we serve are having to make tough choices between paying their rent, paying their medical bills, and being able to afford food," said CEO Leslie Bacho.
Second Harvest says 70 percent of the money raised is from individual donations.
Every $1 equals two healthy meals.
