CALL IN ADVANCE DURING EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS
|
| Although
our staff promises to do our best to get into the office
and warehouse to serve you, we may not be able to do
so if conditions are severe. We want to ensure the safety
of both our staff and our agencies while causing the
least inconvenience to you possible.
Please
check with Second Harvest on any day that you think
we may not be open and you’re coming to pick-up
an order or expecting a delivery.
Call
our main number at 608-223-9121 AFTER 6:30 a.m. on the
day in question. Our message will reflect whether
Second Harvest is open or closed.
If
you place an order on a day we are closed, we will not
be able to process it immediately. We will contact you
when the office re-opens to schedule your pick-up or
delivery appointment. |

Becoming
a Partner Agency
If
you work with a 501(c)3 agency that provides food to low-income
people in your community, you could benefit from partnering
with Second Harvest Foodbank. Please click here
for more information and an agency application. If you have
questions or special needs, contact Mona
Adams Winston at 608-223-9121.
Due
to a strategic decision to focus on building the capacity
of our current member agencies, we are not accepting
applications for residential programs.
There
is no membership or annual fee for an agency to affiliate
with Second Harvest Foodbank. Agencies pay a Shared Maintenance
Fee that averages 4 to 5 cents per pound of food to cover
some of the Foodbank’s costs to acquire, warehouse and distribute
food. Those fees make up about 7% of the Foodbank’s support
and revenue. Second Harvest Foodbank routinely assists agencies
with financial resources to help them distribute more food.
-
Agencies
pay no fees on food Second Harvest Foodbank
receives from community food drives, or
on produce,
baby food, and dairy and bakery products.
