John Hilbrandt started volunteering at the Food Bank in July of 2019. He would volunteer in the mornings and walk or ride his bike on the Riverwalk when finished. “Then they gave me my volunteer t-shirt with the words – Each hour is equal to 92 meals - it changed my outlook.” The more he learned the more he enjoyed being part of the Food Bank. “This is an amazing place!” He has now volunteered over 380 hours! “I have gotten to know many fine folks who are both dedicated employees and volunteers.” John also began helping with sack pack deliveries in the fall in addition to his sorting duties in the warehouse. “Being a volunteer is very rewarding, and I always try to talk to people I have contact with about either using the services or volunteering. I just hope I am physically able to help out for many more years.” We are grateful for committed volunteers, like John, who help us help our community
