Michigan Harvest Gathering

Please check back in the fall of 2021

Give back to your community!

In affiliation with the Michigan Hospital Association, Garden City Hospital is a proud participant of Michigan Harvest Gathering (MHG). MHG is a one-of-a-kind emergency food program benefiting hungry Michigan families through the Food Bank Council of Michigan (FBCM) member food banks along with 3,000 community pantries, shelters, and soup kitchens. Through food and fund donations, Michigan organizations have provided 81 million meals.

Monetary Donations

Monetary donations often yield more emergency meals than contributions of actual food. Every dollar donated helps secure five meals.
