    Behind the Scenes of our COVID-19 Response

    April 10, 2020 By Jenny

    In the past two weeks, we have seen a dramatic increase in the demand for our services. We anticipate that need will grow exponentially as schools remain closed and paychecks disappear. As a supporter of the Food Bank, we wanted to give you an inside look at what it’s like to lead in a crisis and adapt our services to the ever-changing new normal.

    READ INTERVIEWS FROM SOME OF OUR LEADERS DURING THIS CRISIS:

    • Nora Nicholson – Program Director
    • Hisham Hamdy – Operations Director
    • Kim Castaneda – Development Director
    • Joel Sjostrom – President and CEO
    • Lisa Sherrill – Communications Director
