Always a very rewarding opportunity for students to collaborate with the Good Food Pantry🍎🙌 Thank you for being apart of WIUs National Volunteer Week 💜💛

🙌 A huge thank you to our incredible WAVE (Western's All Volunteer Effort) volunteers! Today was busy, and David, Jerrya, Dana, and Danbyy went above and beyond to support our clients.

😁We truly couldn’t serve our community without the dedication and kindness of volunteers like you. Your efforts make a real difference—thank you for helping us nourish McDonough County!
