Peanut butter!


A quick story from our Events Coordinator, Jordan Nyberg.  You just never know what your day is going to look like here at Foodshare!

"Yesterday morning I received a phone call from Devan Valdes and his mother Virginia.  They informed me that Devan had been collecting peanut butter as a part of the
DoSomething.orgcampaign “PB & Jam Slam” and that they would like to come by and drop it off after school, since the deadline for the campaign is this week.  Of course I said “Sure, c’mon by!” not knowing just how much peanut butter they would be delivering.  Boy was I surprised when they pulled up and opened the trunk!  Devan had collected over 220 jars!  I had to go back inside to get a cart!

"They also informed me that for every 10 jars he donates, Devan is entered into a drawing for a $7,500 college scholarship!  That means his name will be entered 22 times!  Good luck, Devan!”
