Come Experience 'Food Banking Re-Imagined' at Harvest Compassion Centers!
What is 'Food Banking Re-Imagined'?
Since 2011, Harvest Compassion Centers have fed over 150,000 individuals. HCC’s ‘Food Banking Reimagined’ concept ensures that our one-stop shopping centers are different from other food and clothing assistance programs. Each location is a fun mini-mart and clothing boutique, with a play corner just for kids. Watch our 5 minute ‘About Us’ video to hear the inspiration and story that launched our passion work.

Who's Hungry
In Arizona, 1 in 4 children and 1 in 5 adults are hungry. Arizona ranks 13th worst in the country in food hardship rate with 19.2% of Arizonians not having enough money to provide food for their family throughout the year. The national food hardship rate is 17.2%.
Feeding America released in August 2014 a nationwide Hunger in America report that concluded that approximately 1.1 million Arizonians struggle with hunger and poverty within our state borders. Did you know 3 out 5 kids living in Arizona qualify for free or reduced lunch at school? Or that 20% of food bank guests are seniors? And over 1 million Arizonians receive SNAP benefits!
