Feed My People

1 person found this review helpful

I have volunteered in the food pantry at Feed My People for more than two years. I have seen the way Feed My People meets the needs of people in Jefferson County by providing healthy food on a regular basis, supporting those looking for jobs, and giving helpful advice as needed. I have also witnessed the support of local churches, schools and the business community who provide items necessary to meet the increased demands of people who are hungry and in need.

As a recently retired volunteer, it has been great learning about the work done by Feed My People. This organization has excellent links to the community which helps to provide the resources gathered for the "people" that are the heart of the mission for Feed My People. They are able to provide emergeny help every day, but continue to work with the families to help them achieve long-term stability. Many of the volunteers are in fact ex-clients, putting into practice what they learned at Feed My People, that we all need to care for each other and share what we have.

I have volunteered in the food pantry at Feed My People for a few years since I retired from teaching. The number of people needing food assistance has grown a great deal since I started. We used to finish at around 12:30 PM and now it is around 2:00 Pm although another day was added to the food distribution schedule. It is so heartwarming to get in donations of food from people and organizations. You should hear the cheers from our Tuesday bunch of workers when we get cereal, or how greatful we are to get meat, eggs, milk or produce from the grocery stores. I wish to thank those individuals, organizations, stores, and businesses who donate. I see the look in the peoples eyes and the smiles on their faces when I deliver a basket to them. I wish you could see it too, because it is your caring that has put the smile there.
