Pagkaing Nangangailangan ng Pamamahagi<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Since its inception in 1983, FIND Food Bank has been a community-based organization run by and for the people. From our humble beginnings in the city of Cathedral City to now serving 10,000-square-miles of eastern Riverside and southern San Bernardino counties our mission has not changed \u2013 Let\u2019s end hunger in the desert region.<\/p>\n\n\n

Natagpuan ni Wayne Robinson ang FIND <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nakita ni G. Wayne Robinson ang pangangailangan ng pagkain sa buong Coachella Valley, at nagsimulang maghatid ng tinapay sa mga taong walang tirahan sa buong kapitbahayan niya. Pumulot siya ng mga pagkain na itatapon ng mga grocery store at inihatid ito sa kanyang asul na Pinto sa mga indibidwal na nangangailangan. Dumating ang balita, at nagsimulang humingi ng tulong si Mr. Robinson sa mga relihiyosong organisasyon at mga boluntaryo upang palawakin ang kanilang mga operasyon upang pakainin ang mga pamilya at mga nagtatrabahong indibidwal upang matugunan ang mga pangangailangan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ngayong araw<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Ang Pamilya Robinson<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Three generations of the Robinson family return to FIND\u2019s warehouse each year to celebrate Mr. Robinson\u2019s birthday and carry on his tradition of volunteerism. Becky Robinson (pictured left) his youngest daughter was one of FIND\u2019s first volunteers. His grandson remembers packing up bread in the blue Pinto when he was 14, and now it\u2019s his 37th year volunteering to help FIND feed those in need. <\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

FIND\u2019s First Agency Partners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Templo Sinai sa Palm Desert<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sa nakalipas na 30 taon, isang grupo ng mga dedikadong boluntaryo ang nag-impake ng mga paunang napiling pagkain mula sa bodega ng FIND upang ipamahagi sa mga nasa homebound na matatanda at nakatatanda sa Palm Desert, Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Indian Wells, Palm Springs, at La Quinta. Ang mga boluntaryo sa Temple Sinai ay nagsilbi ng humigit-kumulang 800 katao bawat buwan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ang mga Direktor ng Programa na sina Gail at Saul Jacobs ay nagretiro kamakailan at naalala ang kanilang 28 taong paglilingkod sa a panayam sa video kasama ang FIND<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simbahang Katoliko ni St. Theresa sa Palm Springs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isa sa mga orihinal na miyembro ng ahensya ng FIND, ang St. Theresa's ay patuloy na nagpapakain sa kanilang lokal na komunidad tuwing Lunes ng umaga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blythe Emergency Food Pantry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sa bukas na mga pinto ng limang araw sa isang linggo, ang mga may-ari ng pantry na sina Lloyd at Pat Hollingsworth ay gagawa ng 3 oras na biyahe papunta sa bodega ng FIND sa Indio upang kunin ang lahat ng pagkain na kailangan nila. Ngayon, ang mga refrigerated truck ng FIND ay naglalakbay patungo sa hangganan ng Arizona upang maghatid ng mga masusustansyang pagkain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2009<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

HANAPIN Mga Paglipat sa Indio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Matapos masunog ang bodega ng FIND sa Cathedral City sa isang malagim na sunog, ang bagong pasilidad ng bodega at mga tanggapang administratibo ay partikular na idinisenyo upang maging isang panrehiyong bangko ng pagkain. Ngayon, ang FIND Food Bank ay tumatakbo mula sa isang 40,000 square-foot-warehouse na may dalawang pang-industriya na freezer at ang pinakamalaking sub-zero na freezer sa Coachella Valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIND\u2019s Kids Summer Club Kicks-Off<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Recognizing that 4 out of 5 children in the public school system in the valley qualify for free and reduced-price meals, FIND launched our Kids Summer Club to provide fresh produce for kids and healthy groceries to take home to the family. The Farmer\u2019s Market-style distribution allowed kids to pick their fruits and vegetables while learning about nutrition to set them up to make healthy choices for a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2015<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Ang Pagtatag ng FIND's Giving Society<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kinikilala ng FIND's Giving Society ang pangako at suporta ng FIND Food Bank na pinaka mapagbigay at may pag-iisip sa komunidad na mamumuhunan. Gumagawa ang mga miyembro ng pinakamababang taunang donasyon na $1,000 o higit pa bawat taon sa loob ng limang taon upang matiyak ang pagpapatuloy ng mga programa ng FIND sa komunidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nagbubukas ang Anza Mobile Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the Anza Mountain Fires of 2019, FIND delivered emergency assistance to residents who lost power, water, and for some, their homes. Realizing that people faced food insecurity year-round, FIND opened a mobile market that serves Anza residents once every month. Instead of driving long distances, sometimes to Temecula, to access quality groceries, families can instead rely on FIND\u2019s trucks to deliver grocery staples to last a couple of weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2021<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

FIND Food Bank Magbubukas ng Bagong Sangay sa Hi-Desert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pinalawak ang FIND sa Hi-Desert upang tulungan ang mga pantry ng pagkain ng Morongo Basin at mga soup kitchen na tumatakbo sa 'mga disyerto ng pagkain,' ibig sabihin ay kailangan nilang maglakbay ng malalayong distansya upang pumili ng masustansyang pagkain para sa mga lokal na kliyente. Ang distribution center ay nag-iimbak ng masustansyang pagkain sa Morongo Basin Healthcare District campus sa Yucca Valley at nagsisilbi sa siyam sa mga miyembrong ahensya ng FIND.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ngayong araw<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

FIND Food Bank provides over 28 million pounds of food each year to 120,000 people on average each month through a robust network of 155 distribution sites, including old and new community agency partners and FIND\u2019s mobile markets. FIND is the largest hunger-relief organization utilizing 15 commercial vehicles to reach over 10,000-square-miles of the desert region to rescue and redistribute healthy food to anyone in need.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
