Meeting Time & Location: DC @ 730a Maximum Number of Brothers: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Event Description: In fiscal year 2017 (July 2016 - June 2017), we distributed more than one million pounds of nutritious food each week to low-income people in need in every zip code of our service area from Daly City to Gilroy, and from the ocean to the bay. We provide food efficiently through our innovative direct-service programs (see below) and by collaborating with a network of 300 partner non-profit agencies operating at 905 different food distribution sites. Partner agencies include shelters, pantries, soup kitchens, children's programs, senior meal sites, and residential programs. Throughout the fiscal year, volunteers contributed more than 338,000 hours of service valued at nearly $7.1 million, the equivalent of 163 full-time employees. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Extra Details: We are looking for volunteers to come out and package these foods and hand them out to those that apply for it. We have roughly 30-50 families come out and receive their produces.
