Ed Services @ Your Service Returns to the Merrimack Valley Food Bank
The Ed Services @ Your Service Team returned to the Merrimack Valley Food Bank on December 5th to help sort, organize and stock shelves for the market type setup they use for area food pantries. This allows for them to be able to easily find what they need to support their guests. The volume of food that is donated is heartwarming and needs volunteers to keep moving the food to where it is needed. Deb Callery, the coordinator for the volunteers and her regular volunteers were very helpful in getting us up to speed quickly in an effort to make the most impact in the short time we were there. After a few hours of camaraderie, much sorting, stacking and 1 can that was pre Y2K, we left with a good feeling that the shelves were stocked and ready to go. It is a great cause and one that will continue to a part of our volunteering opportunities going forward.
Volunteering at this event were Alicia Alcaino, Stacey Cetaruk, Susan, Charest, LeAnne Gaudio, Lillian Montero, Michael Okeke, Peter Ojerholm, Mahesh Thoppae and Roger Tremblay.
Check out some of the pictures from the event:
