🎉 October Volunteer of the Month: Bruce Kazmaier! 🎉

We’re thrilled to recognize Bruce Kazmaier as Ella Cochran’s October Volunteer of the Month! 🌟 Bruce has been volunteering for over a decade, and we truly couldn’t do it without him. 💪

Every Tuesday, Bruce and his trusty truck 🚛 head to the Second Harvest Food Bank to bring back our deliveries — a job he does with dedication and a smile. 😊

When he’s not volunteering, you can find Bruce keeping busy with farm work and yard work 🌾🌻 — proof that he’s always on the move and lending a hand wherever needed.

Thank you, Bruce, for your incredible commitment and heart for service! ❤️🙌

✨ August Volunteer of the Month ✨
We are so proud to recognize Ann Edwards, Grandma Ann, as the Ella Cochran Food Pantry’s Volunteer of the Month!

Ann has been faithfully volunteering for an incredible 34 years! At 96 years young, she still comes every Tuesday to help stock shelves and pack boxes.

When she’s not at the pantry, Ann enjoys working on puzzles. But what she loves most about volunteering is the wonderful people she serves alongside and the chance to give back to the Harborcreek community.

Thank you, Ann, for your inspiring dedication and decades of service! 💙
