I got involved with the Community Ministry because I live in the neighborhood and kept running past the building. One day I finally walked in, asked if they needed help, and realized immediately there was real work to do and real people to support. I started volunteering on the grocery-rescue side and eventually joined the Board, where I now serve as Secretary.
What keeps me committed is simple. I’m fortunate in my own life, and I think we all have a responsibility to look out for the people in our own community. Access to food is the most basic form of dignity. Being part of an organization that removes that barrier for families in our area feels meaningful and concrete, and I’m grateful to contribute.
