We partner with 200 organizations across Central Indiana, and every meal we provide is free. When a partner says the kids they serve are finally eating full, hearty meals—that's the whole mission in one sentence. 💚 #FightHunger

Introducing the Tilt Skillet Gun Show. 💪😄 Hunger Relief Chefs Chessie and Maggie stir hundreds of pounds of ingredients daily in our industrial tilt skillets — feeding thousands of Central Indiana neighbors in the process. The muscles are a bonus. #HungerRelief #Indianapolis

The checkered flag flew Sunday. Our food rescue team was already at the track collecting donations. 🏁 Now our volunteers are turning that food into meals for neighbors across Central Indiana. The race ends. The mission doesn't. #SecondHelpings #Indy500 #HungerRelief

$18,000,000 saved for 200 community partners last year. The need is that great. So is our commitment to meeting it. We bring the food. They change lives. #SecondHelpings #FightHunger #Indianapolis

20 years ago Kim Kiser came to Second Helpings as a volunteer. Then 8.5 years in our Hunger Relief kitchen. Then our development team. Today — a 20th anniversary worth celebrating. 🎉 Thank you, Kim. 💚 #SecondHelpings #TeamSecondHelpings

Want to see where 5 million pounds of rescued food becomes meals for your neighbors? We give group tours — companies, orgs, civic groups, you name it. Come see what fighting hunger actually looks like. 🥗 secondhelpings.org/donate/be… #SecondHelpings #Indianapolis

Not every partner can reheat a meal. So we bring the food to them in a form they can actually use. Today's kitchen work: rows of fresh salads, ready to serve. This is hunger relief that fits real life. 🥗 #SecondHelpings #FightHunger

Between every volunteer shift, our kitchen gets wiped down and set up for the next group. This is that moment — the quiet before 5,500 more meals get made. Come be part of what happens next. secondhelpings.org #Indianapolis #nonprofit #volunteer

Yesterday @Humana sponsored a full Day of Meals AND sent a crew of volunteers to help make them. That's fighting hunger from all angles. 💚 Thank you — Central Indiana is better because of you. #SecondHelpings #DayOfMeals

Fresh tomatoes. A clear set of instructions. Volunteers who show up and do it right. 🍅 This is what care looks like at scale inside our hunger relief kitchen. #SecondHelpings #FightHunger #Indianapolis
