Clubs Join Together to Distribute USDA Food Boxes

May 20 offers a great example of Rotarians from multiple clubs working together to "make good things happen in our communities."  Many thanks to all the volunteers from the Rotary Clubs of Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Roswell and Alpharetta for making this a successful joint service project.

We had 20 Rotarians plus six volunteers from the food pantries at the Solidarity Sandy Springs loading dock from 7 - 10:30 am. Together we loaded 1,100 20 lb.+ boxes (more than 20,000 pounds of food in total) into about ten vehicles (large and small trucks, SUVs and trailers). The unloading process happened at several places in Fulton and DeKalb Counties. Just loading up represents about 70 Rotarian volunteer hours and those probably doubled as club members put in additional hours later in the day at distribution events.
