Second Helpings is a nonprofit food rescue and distribution network striving to eliminate hunger and food waste in the South Carolina Lowcountry. We collect and distribute food which would have otherwise ended up in landfills, and provide it, free of charge, to more than 50 food pantries, soup kitchens and family and senior programs in Beaufort, Jasper, and Hampton counties. In 2022, we rescued and distributed 3.2 million pounds of food. Since 1992, we have distributed more than 47 million pounds of food for our neighbors who need it.
