Harris Launches “Hunger Knows No Season” Food Drive

Harris Launches “Hunger Knows No Season” Food Drive

INDIANAPOLIS, February 17, 2009 – Today, Harris Bank announced the launch of the “Hunger Knows No Season” food drive to assist local food banks in Central Indiana.

Beginning immediately and effective throughout 2009, residents can drop-off nonperishable food items to any Harris branch in Central Indiana; branch staff will then deliver donated items to local food banks.

“While the traditional holiday season of giving is over, there is a tremendous need for donations at area food banks as many in our communities struggle to provide enough food to support their families,” said John Frieburg, Harris Regional President. “Just as hunger knows no season, help knows no end. We are honored to serve our communities and proud to help throughout the entire year.”

Dozens of local food pantries and other organizations throughout Central Indiana have been identified for support, including Gleaners in Indianapolis. "Hunger is a problem year-round," says Pamela Altmeyer, President and CEO, Gleaners. "Gleaners and its 430 charities operate 52 weeks a year. We appreciate Harris Bank's efforts to raise food for those in need, and create awareness of hunger in our community."

To learn more about the “Hunger Knows No Season” food drive campaign, please call Jim Badger, Harris Marketing Manager, at 317-228-5185.
