In support of Hard Rock International’s 7^th Annual Imagine There’s No Hunger campaign, which aims to turn John Lennon’s dream into our future, Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino donated non-perishable food items to Harvest Drive Florida at Western High School during a Thanksgiving food drive for families in need on Friday, November 21, 2014.

In his iconic song “IMAGINE,” John Lennon asked us all to picture a world free from hunger. In support of that mission, Yoko Ono Lennon joins Hard Rock International and WhyHunger for the seventh year of the IMAGINE THERE’S NO HUNGER campaign, which aims to turn John Lennon’s dream into our future.

To date, IMAGINE has helped communities grow enough food to provide more than 9.7 million nutritious meals to children and supported programs that taught more than 27,600 community members techniques for sustained food production.

Established in 1992, the Harvest Drive Florida is a yearlong project that culminates events that take place at several Broward County public schools every Thanksgiving. Families receive a complete Thanksgiving meal and a week’s worth of grocery staples, as well as personal and household necessities during Thanksgiving season.
