Leadership Team

Since its creation in 2009, County Harvest has rescued more than five million pounds of food from food donors across Westchester County, and delivered it to nearby soup kitchens, food pantries and homeless shelters. Along the way, our leadership team has grown our all volunteer organization to more than 500 people strong, and has worked to alleviate hunger for families, seniors, veterans and children.
