Food For Thought

Together!

Your service group, school team, book club, or group of friends can join together and volunteer as a group.

Sometimes these groups are organized as a corporate effort in team building, and sometimes it’s a group of young people who want to gain experience in service based work.

Here’s what one group had to say:

“We had an amazing experience that will stick with us for the rest of our lives. This project opened our minds to new things that we had never experienced. We have matured through our project and learned many lessons. Food for Thought is an amazing organization and we are so glad we were able to get involved with it.”

Last year a group of seniors from a local high school adopted Food For Thought as their service project. They delivered groceries each Wednesday afternoon to people living with AIDS in Santa Rosa. By being the regular drivers they were able to get to know these men, women, and children (several of whom were primarily Spanish-speaking). This personal interaction provided valuable insight into the lives of a variety of people living with AIDS.

In the spring, they gathered more friends and staff a food drive outside the Windsor Safeway, collecting nearly $2,000 in donated groceries and cash.
