With many of our regular volunteers heeding the recommendations to remain home during the crisis, we need volunteer drivers to do food pick ups from 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Also, we can use additional food prep assistance from anytime after 6:00 - 10:00 a.m. Thanks to those who are have stepped up at this time to fill the gaps. We are especially grateful to Kentucky Harvest for bringing us needed items and to the Brown-Forman Corporation for providing us with prepared bag lunches. Please continue to pray for the health and safety all of our volunteers and guests, as well as our city, state, country, and the world during this pandemic.
