Review for Gleaners Community Food Bank of Southeastern Michigan, Detroit, MI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been doing Social Work for 11 years and regardless of the population of people i assist, Gleaners has always been an option for those less fortunate. They have provided food for homeless teens and teen mothers, the elderly, foster care homes and organizations, the mentally ill, low income, 1time or new unemployed families....EVERYONE. I am truly proud to have associated my work and effort with an organization who's is focus is on the community. They are still located on the east side of Detroit and see first hand how their generosity and charity affects people. i wish them years and years of service.

help so many people and families within the community. It could change a neighborhood with additional programs and housing.

Continue to help those in need for that reason alone
