On December 15th, 50 volunteers from Harvest joined together to serve our community by giving away toys, Christmas dinners, and clothes to approximately 25 families at our annual Christmas Mart.

In honor of Feed NM Kids Day on November 14, local leaders conducted a press conference at the APS Food and Nutrition Building to bring awareness of childhood hunger in New Mexico.
