“I enjoy working for an organization that gives back to the community, particularly in this current climate where food insecurity in our community is rising every year”
For the past six years, our May Impact Volunteer of the Month, Val Robinson, has dedicated her time to supporting the Food Pantry and helping ensure that neighbors in our community have access to nutritious food and support.
Volunteering in the pantry has also given Val “a sense of need and purpose,” along with meaningful connections. “The volunteers are all lovely to work with, and we make it a fun experience with a great atmosphere. Shout out to Sarah Kate and Linda, who are fantastic leaders to work alongside!”
In addition to her work at the pantry, Val is also a member of Rose Run Presbyterian Church, which partners with the pantry throughout the year to support local families. The church grounds are also the future permanent home of the Healthy New Albany Food Pantry.
Thank you, Val, for the compassion, positivity, and endless dedication you bring to helping neighbors in need.
