The Volunteer Way (TVW) is in an expansion mode - we are trying to build a new building
to be able to expand our services in Pasco County. Hopefully, we will be able to start mass distribution on the east
side of Pasco County. We are starting to get calls from food pantries and soup kitchens located in eastern Pasco County,
requesting to receive food from our food bank. At the present we are assisting 4,700 families in west Pasco
with food for their families. Our food bank is also assisting many of the hunger relief organizations located throughout
Pasco with free food to distribute to the hungry people of their communities. We have been assisting low-income families
with food for the past twenty (20) years and I have never seen so many hungry people coming to our partnering
hunger relief charities for help.
We are part of Florida Association of Hunger Relief Ministries (F.A.H.R.M) and will receive
funds this year for our district, which will help a lot of smaller hunger relief ministries that can not pay high fees for
the food they pass out in their communities. We also had a grant writer write seven grants and we are believing that
we will receive at least one or two of these grants if not all of them. If we receive two of these grants , we will
be able to feed most of Florida. We hope to have tractor trailers of food shipped to different areas of Florida.
The Volunteer Way also wrote a three year capacity building grant to help the smaller hunger relief charities with computers,
walk-in refrigerators and much more to better serve their communities.
We are starting to be recognized by the local business community for the work we have
been doing with the hungry children and their families for the past twenty years. We have businesses running food drives
and fundraisers for our food bank and their employees volunteering at our facility. It is so great to see how many care
about the less fortunate of our communities and willing to take action to correct the situation. We have truly been
Blessed.
