Today’s food bank distribution was one of the toughest we’ve had.
The heat was intense, and at the beginning there were only five of us trying to do it all: packing bags, helping citizens complete paperwork, and carrying food outside for distribution. We had to take turns working outside because we were becoming overheated. Two more volunteers arrived later to help, and we are incredibly grateful for every extra set of hands.
A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who came out today and waited patiently, especially those who stood in line despite the heat. Your patience and understanding meant so much to us.
I also want to give a huge thank you to Serenity Charity Club for their continued dedication and commitment to making this monthly food distribution possible. We understand the need in our community, and today we fought through the heat, broken wheels on our carts, and simply not having enough hands to get the job done.
My deepest gratitude goes to Ms. Pam, Ms. Sylvia, Ms. Shalaha, Ms. Wanda, Ms. Riley, and Mr. Ricky. This program typically needs 10–15 or more volunteers, and today would not have been possible without each and every one of you.
If you, your family, church, organization, or community group would be interested in volunteering with us on the 3rd Saturday of each month, please send us a message. We would truly love to have you join us.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support this program and help us serve our community. Together, we can make a difference.
