Harvest Against Hunger (HAH) is a Seattle-based nonprofit that tackles food insecurity and waste across the country.

The Harvest VISTA Program places AmeriCorps members at local hunger relief agencies, where they create systems for produce collection, food sovereignty and education, volunteer recruitment, gleaning, and gardening. By design, specific activities vary by location to support community needs and available resources. To do this, members build and develop relationships with local growers, recruit new volunteers, build effective transportation networks, and identify necessary resources to make these new programs sustainable. Harvest VISTA Leaders are detail-oriented and community building centric mentors, who support the coordination of the Harvest VISTA Program.
