Legacy donors Alan Feinberg and his wife Joan Weber are motivated to give back to the community. When they relocated from Boston to the Bay Area in 1990 and learned how many people — especially families with children — were struggling with food insecurity, they were appalled. “No one should have to do without a nutritious meal, especially in a wealthy area like Silicon Valley.”
They were especially concerned that so many children struggled to get by without adequate nutrition. “I remember sitting down for a home cooked meal with my family every night,” said Alan. “I took it for granted.”
琼和艾伦第一次遇到第二次收获是在艾伦的一次公司活动中做志愿者时。他们对每筹集一美元就能提供多少营养食品印象深刻。
1993年，他们进行了第一次捐赠，并在接下来的30年里成为了忠实的捐赠者。当考虑留下遗产时，将他们的遗产列为重要受益人的遗赠似乎是合乎逻辑的。
“We don’t have any children of our own. We want to ensure that children in the future have the same access to healthy food as we did when we were growing up. Leaving a legacy is our way of providing for multiple generations of kids.” – Joan, Second Harvest of Silicon Valley legacy donor
