Meet Joan! We are celebrating Joan's 25 year anniversary as a volunteer at Lynnwood Food Bank. Thank you, Joan, for your tireless efforts in serving our community.

Joan is the first person to arrive at the food bank on days that she works. So early in fact, that we had to give Joan her own key to get in the building, because the rest of us are still sleeping! Joan is also one of the last to leave, she not only does her 'jobs' at the food bank, but she does anything she sees that needs to be done.

She also takes care of all of us, keeping our breakroom clean and stocked with coffee. Joan defines the term 'busy bee' as she never stops moving. She runs circles around all of us! On top of all of that, Joan is sweet, kind, generous, and a pleasure to work with.

We all love Joan. Join us in thanking Joan for all the time and energy she has given our community.

Thank you, Joan!

Meet Cliff! Cliff has been volunteering with Lynnwood Food Bank for 20 years! Can you believe it? Cliff has done many jobs over the years, including picking up donations from grocery stores. Today Cliff works in our meat department and continues to volunteer two days per week.

Cliff's son-in-law (Robin) and grandson (Dillan) volunteer at the food bank two days a week as well. Not only are we a food bank family of volunteers, but we also literally have family volunteers! :)

Thank you, Cliff, for your many years of service to our community, you are kindness personified.

We love our partnership with Trader Joe's-Lynnwood,WA ! Not only do they donate quality food to our community, but they also volunteer on a regular basis.

Thank you, Trader Joe's!
