Dear Editor,
On behalf of the Richmond Food Bank Society Board of Directors, I want to express my sincere appreciation for everyone who made 2014 such a productive year for our organization: the 200 regular volunteers who gave so generously of their time; our hardworking staff; our community partners who provided valuable programs; and our donors, whose support is so crucial to helping the more than 1400 people we serve in a typical week.
We’ve seen a rise in the number of people who need the food bank over my two years as RFB president.
Should this trend continue through 2015, I’m confident that with the continued generosity of our community we will be able to keep offering healthy and nutritious food at our grocery distributions and providing food for many of our community partners.
Thank you to everyone supports the Richmond Food Bank as we work towards a community where no one goes hungry.
I hope 2015 brings joy and prosperity for all.
Richard Brand
President
