I volunteer at events and help with the food. I love working with the volunteers and helping the children in our community.
I volunteer with this program and my wife is a Board Member. I love her stories that she hears about from other volunteers of the children's smile on their faces and the children's excitement when they get to pick up their food on Fridays. I am in awe at the community support and the support of volunteers that they have on a regular basis at events to benefit Feed the Need of Putnam County, Inc.
I help this program by loading and unloading food. I also help sort the food for pick up. This is a great cause and we really need it here in Putnam County. I love working with them.
I am a current Board Member and the Secretary of this Non-Profit. I gladly volunteer for Feed the Need of Putnam County, Inc. I truly believe in our mission and we have set high goals for this non-profit and with our drive and the wonderful volunteers, donors, and community support I am sure we will meet everyone of them. I am excited and look forward to the future of this terrific and humbling program.

I volunteer in helping load the food and unload the food during pick ups and drop offs. I really think that this is a wonderful program and it is greatly needed in our county.
I volunteer at various fund raisers for Feed the Need of Putnam County, Inc. I really believe in this non profits mission in helping food insecure children in Putnam County. They have a wonderful Board of Directors and they are great to work with. They are well organized and very motivated in making a difference in the lives of our children.

Great organization that does so much for our community in providing food for the less fortunate children that needs it so badly. Keep up the great work you are doing. Ben Bates
As a member of the Putnam county community, I am honored to have served this selfless cause. This was a wonderful experience where folks from all walks of life, all ages, came together and worked as a team to package meals for the community. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this project.
As the Executive Director of a nonprofit that provides food to Feed the Need, I have visited and evaluated how Feed the Need operates. They have many hard-working volunteers devoting lots of time, energy, and effort (not to mention money) each week to provide food to children who would otherwise go hungry. During the school year, many children receive breakfast and lunch at school, but these same children often suffer from hunger when school is not in session. So Feed the Need provides food to these children on weekends and over the summer break. Studies show that children who suffer from chronic undernutrition perform less well in school, are absent more often, have more physical and mental health issues, and have more behavioral issues. Keeping kids fed is essential and Feed the Need is doing just that and doing it well and cost-efficiently.
Our community has a very large number of children who do not have the security of knowing they will have enough food to feed and nourish them when they go home from school. An amazing group of people in our community came together to form Feed the Need of Putnam County which is going a long way to meeting this need in children's homes. There are many ways to volunteer and to contribute and ever contribution is important in these children's lives. Children are furnished with food when they go home on the weekends and during the summer which is shared with siblings and other family members. I have contributed time and dollars to this cause because a child shouldn't have to worry about being hungry anywhere in the world.
