Second Harvest operates a network of food banks around the country, reaching, it's estimated, 26 million hungry people a year, in shelters, daycare centers, food pantry operations. Mary Picket and Debra Keegan of Second Harvest explain how it works: Second Harvets recieves a donation of ice cream or cereal or surplus salmon form Alaska, lets the food banks know by fax, then arranges shipping.
