Our water tap is back for the season! According to a guest survey, only 57% said it was easy for them to get clean drinking water. As the temperature increases, we know how vital it is to have that access. Everyone can visit our water tap on the Elder St. side of our building 24/7 - come by any time to quench your thirst or cool down! 😎❤️

The month of May means unpredictability, and we have a brand new weekly weather board so our guests can prepare for the upcoming days. Our guests are often exposed to the elements, and their needs change with the season - help us keep them prepared!

Our friends at Last Mile Food Rescue wrote an insightful blog post about food supply chains! Check it out:

"Hunger doesn’t start at the dinner table. Here’s the chain: It starts at a chokepoint in the Persian Gulf, moves through a fertilizer plant, travels to a corporate farm in the U.S., and ends — if we’re not paying attention — with an empty shelf at a neighborhood pantry."

When I hear “Strait of Hormuz” I worry about hungry kids in Cincinnati.

Please join us in welcoming University of Cincinnati interns David and Kristen! Both are studying to be dietitians. For the next five weeks, David and Kristen will try out every job in the kitchen to learn what we do, make suggestions to improve our work, and help educate our volunteers on food safety. We're so glad to have them. ☺️
