Strategic Partnerships Leverage Forgotten Harvest’s extensive network of 800 food sources and 200 emergency providers in Metro Detroit to propose collaborative sponsorships, cause-marketing campaigns, or in-kind supply partnerships with local retailers, restaurants, and distributors.

Board Engagement With recent additions to the board from GM, Humana Medicaid Michigan, Detroit Public Schools, and legal counsel, identify opportunities to align with their corporate social responsibility goals, volunteering programs, and donor-advised funds to expand funding and program support.

Community Distribution capitalize on their mobile food distribution unit and community events to offer co-branded outreach programs, on-site grant-funded meal initiatives, or pop-up food-security education partnerships at local events and schools.

Digital & Data Utilize the tech stack including SAP, Dynamics, and Tableau to propose data-driven sponsorship packages, impact dashboards for donors, and digital donation campaigns powered through WordPress and MailChimp to optimize fund-raising efficiency.

Funding Momentum Target corporate philanthropy and grants by highlighting significant recent donations that supported hundreds of thousands of meals, and propose multi-year funding or challenge grants tied to scalability goals and measurable outcomes.
