Harvest Food & Outreach Center, founded in 2003 by Austin and Ginny Hunt in Indian River County, provides a holistic, multi-component approach that provides a hand up to those living at or under the 200 percent federal poverty level. Harvest’s mission is to assist those living in poverty to achieve economic self-sufficiency through resource development, resource protection, and resource connection. Harvest’s unique model offers a comprehensive three-tiered approach to lifting people out of poverty through: 1) a Hunger Relief Program that includes an emergency food box and cost share grocery program, 2) a crisis center that stabilizes people in crisis through counseling and active referrals to services, and 3) education and employment opportunity programs that addresses the source of the problem and provides long term solutions for those in need toward self-sufficiency.
