I have volunteered with KY Harvest for 3 years. Being a busy working parent, I appreciate the flexibility in how I can help. Some months I have done weekly rescues, while others maybe only one. The work that they are doing in our community is NEEDED and amazing. It truly makes a difference. If you have time to help rescue food, even just once a month, please call or sign up on the app. It's so easy!
