Review for Food For Thought, Forestville, CA, USA
I have volunteered for the Food Band for Sixteen Years. It was difficult at first because even the volunteers were dying of Aids Related Virus and the turnover was significant and emotionally trying. Since the new combination medications people are living longer and we have a great family of volunteers and employees. I was just thinking the other day how it is so much more than a FOOD BANK and has become a family where everyone feels comfortable and supported whatever their needs. I sometimes just go to the Food Bank for support and to provide some assistance to others and in turn feel cared for and "loved". Sometimes it is the best therapy. The food garden fairies share a lunch on Saturday that is supportive and delicious and we help supply nutritious food from the garden for the clients. Orny

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I do not receive Food from Food Bank, but am aware of many persons who do and also have many friends who receive services. I qualify, but feel I can afford my own food so only provide moral, emotional, and physical support in a volunteer fashion.
