Big things are happening at Gleaners Food Bank!
Today was an exciting day as our team rolled up their sleeves and literally started tearing down walls in preparation for a brand-new chapter. As part of our move to a shopping model, one of the walls came down today, making way for a space that will completely transform how we serve our community.
This change is about so much more than a renovation. It's about dignity. Beginning July 2, individuals and families who visit the food bank will be able to shop and choose the foods that best meet their needs, preferences, and dietary requirements, just like they would in a grocery store.
We believe this new approach will create a more welcoming, empowering, and respectful experience for everyone who walks through our doors.
There is still lots of work ahead, but today was a huge milestone and a reminder that exciting things are on the horizon.
July 2 can't come soon enough. We are ready to welcome our community to a new and improved Gleaners Food Bank!
