On October 11, we blogged Food for those in need at year’s end. . . Let’s work together. Today, we are taking action on our commitments including reaching out to houses of worship and introducing Outreach and Engagement Plan Toolkit and Workbook.
In the letter, I commit to:
- Creating a new page, Holiday food and meals, Oct. - Dec. 2026 (done)
- Gathering information
- Broadcasting info
- Emailing timely updates
- Offering TA
I ask community-based organizations to:
- Give food information to me
- Share with colleagues
I will go beyond outreach to faith institutions later this week. In the meantime, if your organization offers free or low-cost food to people living on the Northern Neck, please email me.
Finally, sign up for holiday food and meal updates.
