Project & Donation Ideas

See below for lists of possible projects and donations--but if you have a talent or an idea not included below, by all means please donate it in the service of feeding hungry people! If you're not sure whether your project/donation would work for HOT, click the button above to contact us. We'll be happy to help!  

The only real stipulation is that donations must be of your talents, not just your possessions. In other words, don't donate the old furniture you've been wanting to get rid of--unless by your talents you made it or refurbished it!

Check out our our Facebook page​ to view pictures of many past Harvest projects that were sold or auctioned. You may gain ideas from seeing how others have used their talents!
