Good Work Project – Spring 2010
By Deane Tolman 

Did you know last year volunteers logged 127,851 hours (the equivalent of 61 full-time employees) at the Food Bank of North Carolina?  On March 20^th, nine of our chapter members spent their Saturday morning attempting to break this record for 2010.  Those attending included Pat Adams, Jana Antos, Bob Cyrus, David Braswell, Kim Hannah, Karen Price, Roseanne Kokos, Stacy Schrader, and Deane Tolman.

Not knowing what excitement awaited us on our particular visit, we quickly learned that our assignment was to tackle 10,000+ pounds of recently donated salvage food (consisting of dented cans and packages with compromised labels).  Our daunting task was to carefully examine these food items for safety, and then repackage and sort them into one of ten different selected categories.  From this, these boxed food stocks will then to be distributed to the Food Banks’ partner agencies (e.g. rescue missions, food pantries, soup kitchens and school programs) within their 34 country network. 

As amazing as our accomplishment seemed at the end of our shift, we later learned that the Food Bank receives over 1.3 million pounds of salvage each year alone!  Although exhausted and pleased that we had escaped the near-by bagging-potatoes assignment, bestowed to our other fellow volunteers, we left feeling a small sense of accomplishment, albeit a small dent, and that we had made a mark in the life of one of 480,000 individuals (especially children and the elderly) in North Carolina who are at risk of hunger!  A special thanks to our Chapter members who did made a difference by volunteering of their time.
