Stories

We measure our success in actual lives changed. These stories are a testament to the difference that communities can make when we come together to create lasting change.

Featured Story - Volunteer

Kim

Everyone who walks through the front door of RCC recognizes Kim.  She greets everyone and handles the carts and tubs.  Kim has one of the most important jobs at the pantry.  She keeps us flowing.  She gets the empty carts and tubs through the door and gets them ready for the next client to be served.  In between carts she talks to clients and knows many by name.  Kim was a regular volunteer at the pantry for several years - rarely missing a Saturday.  She and her husband moved to Florida in January and she will be missed by all.  Thank you for your dedication to RCC Kim.

Featured Story - Volunteer

Libby

Libby is one of the volunteers that most clients will never see.  She is our volunteer coordinator and makes sure that we have volunteers to serve every Saturday we are open as well as on Tuesdays and Thursdays for Kroger pickup.  Libby organizes the volunteers every Saturday, making sure everyone feels welcome and knows what their assigned task will be.  She is the one who reaches out when new volunteers inquire about serving.  In addition Libby works in the warehouse, giving out frozen and perishable foods.  Libby is one of the reasons the pantry runs so well.

Featured Story - Donor

Chris

For the second year Chris has been instrumental in getting our hunger garden started.  Chris grows all her own plants from seed and donates them to us.  She also brings lots of extra plants for our patrons and routinely donates bounty from her own large garden.  Chris worked with us a few months ago to decide what we would plant.  She also came and participated in our annual planting day with some local grandparents and their grandchildren to ensure everything was planted correctly.  Chris is the one I call with garden questions, and I so appreciate her dedication to our ministry.
