Thank you to KFMB-TV CBS 8 reporter Evan Noorani for this Earth 8 story focused on a very important volunteer role: food rescue driver. On the last day of #EarthMonth, we highly recommend watching the story to see how local volunteers are directly contributing to lessening the environmental impact of food waste and supporting our neighbors experiencing food insecurity in bringing nutritious meals home: https://bit.ly/4bd4Ba2 Feeling inspired?

Reminder: this month, thanks to a special match from Price Philanthropies, every $1 you give, up to $100,000, doubles to help provide four meals to San Diegans experiencing hunger.

Mickey is our VOTM this #GlobalVolunteerMonth! And it's fitting, because, Mickey is an example of how a successful a volunteer relationship can be over many, many years. He isn't just a volunteer; he's an essential part of our team, bringing positivity, dedication, and a can-do spirit to everything he does. He's volunteered with Feeding San Diego for nine years and currently volunteers five days a week. We couldn't imagine our organization without him, and his contributions have truly shaped our success. Thank you, Mickey! #nonprofit #hungerrelief #foodrescue #volunteerstories

This week, 28 volunteers came from local Starbucks stores to help pack and glean food for community members facing hunger through their Global Month of Good volunteering activation. This event builds on Starbucks longstanding commitment to supporting hunger relief, including support of Feeding San Diego by providing volunteer support, FoodShare food donations, and FoodShare capacity grants. We are grateful to have recently received a volunteer capacity building grant from Starbucks through this partnership. #GoodThingsAreHappening #corporatepartner #volunteer
