These changes include the following: <ol> <li>Increased the amount of food purchased from our supermarket and food wholesaler food sources which was made possible by the significant increase in the number of donations and grants received by BB over the last few months.</li> <li>Expanded our impact through our participation in a groundswell coalition made up of funding sources, area school districts and other non-profits involved in the food insecurity movement in the Berkshires.</li> <li>Focused our collection and delivery efforts on larger food sources and distribution organizations in order to maximize our efficiency and productivity.</li> <li>Increased the number of volunteers which was particularly useful in light of the temporary withdrawal of a good number of our older volunteers who understandably chose to more rigorously shelter-in-place in order to minimize their health risk exposure.</li> <li>Converted our refrigerated storage space to a community resource in order to allow other organizations access thereby making the space into a centralized distribution center.</li> </ol> Link to Learn More Text for Learn More Button Ways to Help Tags Type - In-person or Virtual plus other(s) In-person Virtual Answer Calls Collect Donations Delivery Food Distribution Food Packing Foster Animals Hotline Staff Indoor Maintenance Note Writing Other Outdoor Phone Calling Project-based Proofreading Research Skills-based Tech Support Tutoring Writing Ages 12-15 16-18 55+ Adults (18+) Child with Adult Children (5-12) Groups Corporate Teams Families Groups (10+) Groups (2-10) Individuals How Often One-time Ongoing Recurring Training Formal None On-site Skilled When Anytime Evenings Weekdays Weekends-- Parent -- Add New Keep Visible Until:
