Volunteers of the Week

Food on Foot is a unique volunteer opportunity that
puts us in contact with people in need and a direct
reminder to not take what we have for granted. The
goal is to not just hand a person a meal, but to give
him confidence, opportunity and hope to be able to
provide his own meal.

Food on Foot runs a tight ship. That’s what first drew us to
the organization. What keeps us coming back is the
hope we have for each person we meet and the belief
that they could be the next success story.

Listening to Charles humbly share his story about his
life on the streets and where he is now is proof that
Food on Foot is not just a meal ticket. When Charles
first showed up, Food on Foot handed him a meal but
with continued commitment he got a job. And now he
lives in an apartment with furnishings from donations
wrangled by Food on Foot volunteers. Charles
continues to show up to thank the individuals that
helped him. He tells his story just a few feet away
from the food line that he used to stand in.
