RIVER CITIES HARVEST

River Cities Harvest is a United Way agency and a Redistribution Organization of the Feeding America program through Facing Hunger Foodbank, a network of food programs across the country that seek to ensure edible food will not be thrown away, but used by agencies to feed those in need... Our purpose is to stabilize individuals by providing basic needs, encouraging opportunities through educational and employment avenues and creating accountability through mentorship, volunteer and internship programs... River Cities Harvest began in the early 1990s as a volunteer effort led by a group of ordinary retired citizens looking for a way to help a local meal center, Ashland Community Kitchen, serve food to the hungry in Ashland, Kentucky.
