Which squash will make the cut? Going through the bins to make sure that clients get the best quality squash and any ‘bad seeds’ weren’t distributed.
Blue Ridge Area Food Bank (BRAFB), is a non-profit organization that provide food assistance to families across the Blue Ridge Area. According to their website, last year they distributed “20.6 million meals to hungry families!” While volunteering I helped sort through fruits, vegetables, and other canned goods in preparation for distribution. Additionally, I worked with a team of students to create a PSA and inforgraphic (English and Spanish) to assist with the BRAFB’s marketing efforts.
BRAFB prides its self in mission and believes that it “exists for a few very simple reasons: Food sustains life. It restores options. It provides hope.” What a powerful message! During my time here, it was clear to me that the people that work for this organization are passionate about jobs. It was honor to help any way that I could. I was blown away by my experience!
