Gleaners Community Food Bank of Southeastern Michigan

Mission: To provide households with access to sufficient, nutritious food and related resources.

We believe hunger can be solved. We are working to accomplish this through collaboration, efficient operations, education, and innovative solutions to achieve a hunger-free community in Southeast Michigan.

Gleaners collects food and monetary donations, those donations are sorted, the food is distributed, and communities are nourished.

Headquartered in Detroit, Gleaners serves five Southeast Michigan counties: Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Livingston and Monroe. Gleaners provides food to nearly 400 partner soup kitchens, food pantries, shelters, schools and other agencies across the region, and supplements the efforts of those partners by offering direct service drive-up grocery distributions. Gleaners further empowers households with food programs and education to help overcome food insecurity. Every dollar donated provides three meals, and 92 percent of our expenses directly support our neighbors facing hunger.
