Stated Purpose:
The mission of the Ohio Tri County Food Alliance, dba Second Harvest Food Bank CCL is to alleviate hunger in Clark, Champaign, and Logan Counties by sourcing and distributing nutritious food to people in need, building partnerships, and mobilizing the public to support hunger relief.

Year, State Incorporated:
1981, OH

Also Known As:
Ohio Tri County Food Alliance

Drive-Thru Pantry We offer our drive-thru distribution on Monday and Wednesday from 9am-4pm and Tuesday and Thursday from 9am-6:30pm. Here you can drive through our alley and safely receive an array of food, placed directly in your vehicle.  Order Ahead Our Order Ahead program allows clients to log onto our website through a discreet click and choose ordering system. The client then chooses a time to pick up their order on Thursdays. This helps reduce the physical and social barriers encountered by clients facing food insecurity. Mobile Pantry Our mobile pantry is designed to allow clients to come to a pop-up shop style distribution in the communities in which they work and live. With the mobile truck, we can go across all three counties, targeting food deserts and rural areas where the need is greater. 
Senior Program (CSFP) Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) is a federally funded program for people who are 60+ years of age and whose household income is 130% or less of the federal poverty guidelines. Each month we provide a 40lb box of nutritious food to over 900 seniors throughout Clark, Champaign, and Logan Counties. Participants who meet income guidelines will receive a monthly food package that includes items such as canned meat, vegetables, fruits, fruit juices, potatoes, and hot and cold cereal. According to the USDA, these packages do not provide a complete diet, but provide a good source of nutrients that is typically lacking in the diets of senior citizens.



SNAP Assistance
Second Harvest Food Bank is working alongside Feeding America to bring SNAP application assistance to our community. Nearly 15% of people who qualify for SNAP are not accessing the benefits because they are unsure how. SHFB is here to assist with your application process either over the phone or in-person. In doing so, we can make sure your application is properly filled out and ready for review. Please remember, it can take up to 30 days to be approved or denied.
