Skagit Gleaners' purpose is to provide food, household merchandise, and clothing to frugal, waste-conscious, and working families. Skagit Gleaners does this by rescuing surplus food and products from local businesses, keeping such items out of overflowing landfills.

Skagit Gleaners will use funds from 4% Friday to purchase more culturally appropriate fresh produce from local Mexican-Indigenous farm owners during high harvest months, which is when Skagit Gleaners’ sees a concentration of seasonal farmworkers using its services.
