Local food bank needs help
|
|
August 3, 2012 |
The Bonners Ferry Food Bank, which collects and
distributes food for those in need year in and
year out, is in dire need of volunteers to help
meet the demand.
According to director Christine Villanueva, help
is needed to pick up donations, in general
cleaning and maintenance, in stocking the
shelves and in giving out food. In short, pretty
much doing everything that needs to be done.
In addition to the routine, Christine said the
food bank will likely be moved soon from their
current location at 7164 Fourth Street to a new
location on the South Hill, so the need for
volunteers is even more urgent.
"Volunteering in one's community is the most
selfless act one can do," Christine said, "and
we sure need some help!"
Christine will train all who volunteer, and it
doesn't matter whether you can give a lot of
time or a little, your help will be appreciated.
Those interested in helping provide an important
community service can pick up volunteer
information packets at the food bank. To find
out more, call Christine at (208) 267-3663. |
