Event Calendar

Help us turn your table for two into dinner for many during Dine Out for Hunger 2020.

Join SGC Foodservice and Ozarks Food Harvest to show your support for the fight against hunger. Participating restaurants in Springfield and Branson will offer special menu items for one week only, with a portion of proceeds benefitting Ozarks Food Harvest. For every special menu item purchased, SGC will also provide a financial match.

Waitress is coming to Jaunita K. Hammons Hall in Springfield!

Participate in this year’s Fish Drive by hosting a fish-themed food drive or by dropping off nutritious and low-calorie fish in cans and pouches for families facing hunger.

Our pantries are always in need of high-protein items, and fish is one of the most-requested items. Fish is nutrient-dense and is usually easy to prepare without requiring a kitchen or a lot of time.

Last year’s Fish Drive collected more than 3,000 meals for hungry neighbors. Help make this year an even bigger success!

Join Boy Scouts across the Ozarks for the 31st annual Scouting for Food.
