I have to share with you my first appointment this morning and to tell you what an inspiration this organization is! I met with John Dziurgot this morning... he runs the show over at Gleaners. They are a donation driven food bank for the area and are building a brand new "store" that those in need can shop at. The organization dedicated to stopping the hunger that plagues the downriver community. I got the tour of their new facility that will provide the people in the community a place to get the food they need in a dignified manner. Like all non-profits, they struggle with not having enough support and awareness from the communities that they help. John is coming on board as a DADBA member and I am sure that he will be better suited to tell you what their needs are ~ but if you are considering donating your time or money... this is just another great effort in our community to support. Gleaners website is : www.gcfb.org if you would like to see what is going on there!

Great idea to have them get involved with this group. It will definitely bring a lot more exposure for Gleaners!

We are planning on organizing an expo there in October. I don't have all the details yet but I will keep you all in the loop when I know more.
