Our team in Lansing recently had the rewarding opportunity to volunteer at the Greater Lansing Food Bank through our Convergence Cares initiative. This experience not only allowed us to contribute to a vital cause but also brought our team closer together as we worked towards a common goal: fighting hunger in our community.
About the Greater Lansing Food Bank
The Greater Lansing Food Bank plays a crucial role in ensuring that families and neighbors in need across their seven-county service area have access to nutritious food. By providing this essential support, Greater Lansing Food Bank helps to improve the health and well-being of countless individuals. To support their efforts, our team raised $1,200 throughout the year, which will go towards sustaining their impactful programs!
A Day of Volunteering
On the day of our volunteer activity, our team was eager to make a tangible difference. We spent the afternoon at the Greater Lansing Food Bank facilities sorting food donations. Our tasks included evaluating donations for food safety, boxing, and bagging items for distribution. This hands-on experience gave us a deeper appreciation for the meticulous work that goes into ensuring efficient distribution.
Volunteering together was a fantastic team-building exercise. It allowed us to step away from our usual work environment and collaborate in a different setting. It reinforced our commitment to giving back to the community and highlighted the importance of supporting local organizations that make a significant impact. We are proud of our team’s dedication and look forward to more opportunities to volunteer and support worthy causes in the future.
