Northwest Ohio families are counting on us.
This Giving Tuesday, Our Shelves Are Thinning But Our Spirit Isn’t
Donate on Giving Tuesday - December 2nd, 2025
This year, SeaGate Food Bank is facing one of the hardest seasons in our 44-year history. Cuts in USDA food programs and changes in federal support have left our warehouse shelves alarmingly bare.
The pantries and soup kitchens we serve, the ones feeding seniors, families, and children across Northwest Ohio, are struggling to meet the need. For the first time in years, we have had to make the heartbreaking decision not to accept new agencies or pantries, simply because we do not have the food to give.
We are doing everything possible to keep our existing partners stocked and our trucks rolling, but the math no longer adds up. The need is rising, the supply is shrinking, and our budget is stretched to its limits.
Right now, we need all hands on deck. Every dollar, every pound of food, every corporate sponsor makes a measurable difference.
100% of your donation stays right here in our community. We are a 501(c)3 organization, so your donation is fully deductible depending on your tax situation. Learn more.
