The Harvest Project is the
only not-for-profit on the North
Shore working to, "Extend
a hand up, not a hand out." Since
1993, Harvest has been reaching
out to individuals and families
in an attempt to help them cope
with difficult life circumstances;
family break-ups, illness, job
loss, addiction and mental health
issues can create feelings of
desperation in anyone's life.
We help clients to overcome
challenges and move towards being
self-sufficient, once again. The
Harvest Project nurtures the potential
of every client while helping
them to achieve a positive destiny.
Harvest was founded upon the core
elements missing from most assistance
agencies: respect, dignity and
accountability.
Clients will find the support
network they need for success
at Harvest Project. Through client
care programs, counseling, resource
services, clothing and groceries
Harvest can provide the safety
net between temporary setbacks
and crises.

Our counselor and client care
partners build relationships with
our clients so that the circumstances,
goals and obstacles in each person's
life can be honestly and compassionately
addressed.
Clients must be willing to help
themselves as they strive to find
gainful employment, learn new
life skills, and overcome difficult
circumstances.
