"I have the power to make a difference in our climate crisis. I will use my power to do everything I can, through my actions and my voice, to bring about change. I will lead and encourage others to work as a team to solve this challenge.
Programs designed to help those experiencing hunger in Washington were stretched thin before COVID changed our lives in March 2020. When COVID restrictions and health concerns took hold, these programs had to change the way they provided food to needy individuals and families; creating new alliances to deliver needed groceries instead of waiting in line at a food bank or pantry among other innovations.
Rotarian and Human Community Services committee member, Joyce Robertson, described how fortunate we are to have fellow Rotarian David Bobanick as Executive Director of Rotary District 5030’s Harvest Against Hunger program. She encouraged Rotarians to join their group for Harvest Against Hunger food packing parties once they commence again, recognizing the leadership of David who helped organize the ‘parties’ and aims to help build better healthier food systems.
“Hunger in our community is prevalent and often right in front of us,” he began as he introduced the day’s panelists who described how the pandemic changed their programs and perspectives: Derek Sandison - Director, WA State Department of Agriculture; Sara Seelmeyer - Food Security Program Manager, United Way of King County; and Yamila Sterling-Baker, Manager, Seattle Food Committee/ Solid Ground.
