Food Programs
Berkshires' Bounty
Berkshire Red Cross coordinates Our Berkshires' Bounty a program that is integral in reducing hunger in Berkshire County and minimizing waste by collecting surplus prepared and perishable food and delivering it to organizations that feed the hungry. This program is a coalition of area groups that provide volunteers on a daily basis. These volunteers are trained to pick up good nutritional food from businesses and organizations and deliver it promptly to groups that feed clients and the needy. Run entirely by volunteers, this program is tremendously cost effective. Each year Berkshires' Bounty volunteers pick up and deliver over 50,000 pounds of food to over 15 feeding sites throughout Berkshire County.
