 Currently about 14,000 meals a week are being served to people in need at 30 sites in the Spokane area, he said. On Tuesday, Feed Spokane will begin collecting unused prepared food from Northern Quest Casino, a huge addition to the movement to eliminate waste and hunger in the community. Smith estimates unused food from the casino may provide 1,000 meals a month. Adding the casino to the list of about two dozen area restaurants and caterers couldn’t come at a better time, said Smith. He describes the current state of need in Spokane as “a perfect storm,” in which more people are falling into poverty at a time when businesses are able to give less.

New wheels for free meals            

  Feed Spokane Coalition Shared Food List

For Monday,  May 11, 2009

 We have been working for some time to establish a central location where we can stage food, including adequate freezer space and prep-kitchen facilities. We are excited to announce that Feed Spokane is partnering with Spokane Valley Meals on Wheels to use their new prep-Kitchen facility located at 218 North Crestline (3 blocks north of Sprague on Crestline). This will be our staging location for food pick-ups. This will simplify things for us (and hopefully for you, as well) and enable us to do more regular food distributions.

 The following items are available for IMMEDIATE pickup as of Monday, May 11, between 10:00AM and Noon (or Call or e-mail me to make arrangements to pick up).  All Items are frozen unless otherwise noted. “Pans” are 4-inch deep disposable aluminum hotel pans or ½ pans as noted. Generally speaking, one “pan” of food can feed up to 20 people.

THANK YOU SPOKANE!!!

The Leadership team of Feed Spokane is very grateful to the Greater Spokane Dietetic Association, all the participating restaurants, food and beverage venues, the wonderful citizens who dined out in the month of March to support us and last but not least to Ron Wells and Family for all of your contributions to the success of our "Dine Out to Feed Spokane" event celebrated to commemorate National Nutrition Month and raise money to help us get a refrigerated truck. 

Through the course of this event the Well's Family has donated a refrigerated truck to Feed Spokane and enough funds have been raised for us to begin the process of getting it into operation.  It has been a huge success and we are all very excited to be able to increase the safety and efficiency of our program to rescue prepared food from various business partners and get it delivered to those charitable organizations that continue to feed our citizens who are in need of a hot and healthy meal.

If we all give a LITTLE, together, we will eliminate A LOT of hunger in our city.  Watch for our truck to be moving food in Spokane in the coming months and when you see it, wave at the driver, honk, smile and know that you were part of doing something very very GOOD!

Thank you

Feed Spokane is working with local industry professionals, 2nd Harvest, Women and Children's Free Restaurant, and other coalition partners to offer Serve Safe Training and Certifications to our Meal Site Supervisors and key staff.  Based on input from the September Coalition meeting we are tentatively going to offer the class in two half day segments in October.  Participants will be asked to contribute $25.00 toward the certification test costs.  This is an excellent opportunity to ensure "Best Practices" are utilized at your meal site, as well as gain up to date information on what the latest food safety procedures are.  For more information please contact Maurice Smith at 509-216-7364

A Great Big Thank you goes out the St. Matthews Luthern School for getting involved in the effort to help fight hunger! 

To reenforce the lesson of "The Good Samaritan", Mr. Cortwright asked his class of 2nd - 4th graders how they thought they could be good samaritans by getting involved.  Jordan Kennedy raised his hand and said his mom worked with Feed Spokane to help feed hungry people.  Mr. Cortwright contacted me and asked how his class could "Get Involved".  I mentioned that much of our food comes to us in bulk and we must portion it out for different meal sites.  One of the items we use to do this is 1 gallon zip lock bags.  I told him that though it may seem an unusual way to help,  it was a definite need in our efforts to fight hunger.  He sent home a flyer with all of his students just before the big snow fall closed schools for a week. 

These wonderful children did not forget the need even with the extended vacation from  school.  Last week I picked up a completely full grocery bag of boxes of 1 gallon zip lock bags!  These  14 young citizens of Spokane took it on themselves to be "Good Samaritans", even with the distraction of a snow storm.  The zip lock bags were delivered to Women and Children's Free Restaurant on Friday morning, just in time for them to be used to divide up food that would get hungry mom's and children through the weekend.  The director Marlene Alford, was very excited to recieve this blessed donation.   

Thank you sincerely for being willing to get involved.  Your caring effort helped 112 mothers to get nutritious food to feed their children for the weekend!
