GL Homes brought its volunteer spirit to the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida in Naples to package 1,033 bags of produce — eggplant, sweet potatoes and corn. Our team packaged 3,084 pounds of produce!
 
Through Harry Chapin Food Bank’s distribution programs, the food bank delivers innovative and creative ways to feed the region’s families who are at-risk. In fiscal year 2022, Harry Chapin Food Bank distributed 34.7 million pounds of food — the equivalent of 29 million meals.
 
Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida feeds a quarter of a million people each month in Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry and Lee counties in its fight to end hunger.
