I was introduced to SOSA while working for a church for a summer. I was able to gather leftover food from numerous fields and personally hand it to those in need of the fresh produce. It was a rewarding experience and has been ever since. 18 months later, I still support SOSA in their efforts to reduce and eventually eliminate local hunger. SOSA organizes events throughout the entire year and in multiple states. They contact farmers willing to donate their extra produce, they set up events, big and small, and they bring people in to gather the food. The staff is not limited to desk work however; they are out there with us gathering food, leading youth events, and bagging produce.
