This month’s volunteer spotlight is Food Box Volunteer Sandra Ganey! Beginning as a volunteer shopper in 2024, Sandra has become a regular Food Box Packer with our free food box program, helping assemble hand crafted food boxes for Store to Door clients in need!
Q: How did you first get involved with S2D?
A: I found myself with time and started searching for ways to volunteer. Store to Door was very welcoming and I started shopping for those who can’t get to a store easily.
Q: What keeps you busy when you are not volunteering with Store to Door?
A: I enjoy long bike rides with my husband, yoga, plant based cooking, caring for my dogs and chickens, and growing culinary mushrooms! I now pack food boxes for folks who really need some extra help, and it is very very rewarding.
Q: What is something that your fellow volunteers would be surprised to know about you?
A: My Wednesday food box comrades (Go Team Food Box!) might be surprised to learn I can balance on my hands, and identify birds just by their song!
Q: What would you tell someone who is thinking of volunteering with Store to Door?
A: If you’re considering volunteering – do it! It uplifts the spirit and reminds you that the world is mostly good.
