2023 Organization of the Year

 Since 2004, the board and staff of Feed My People have annually chosen an organization to honor, along with a handful of dedicated volunteers. The selection process is challenging, given the abundance of exceptional individuals and groups we work with. Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to everyone who generously supports the food bank through their time and dedication throughout the year. Congratulations to our 2023 Organization of the Year!

Russ Davis Wholesale 

This year, during historic decreases in food donations nationwide, we have seen a massive increase in donated fresh fruits and vegetables from Russ Davis. This has given us the opportunity to provide even more nutritious fresh food to our neighbors. Bob Drazich, Operations Manager at Russ Davis, shares that it "breaks his heart" seeing food go to waste, and it makes him and his employees feel better knowing that they are keeping quality food in the system by donating. Partnerships like Russ Davis are part of the forward-thinking strategies that Feed My People is using to overcome challenges to meet a rising number of people struggling with food insecurity.
