FedChoice Federal Credit Union staff members teamed up for a visit to Food & Friends to help package meals.

A group of 10 volunteers from the Credit Union participated in the fourth annual Credit Union sponsored outing to put together meals for delivery to those in need.

“‘FedChoice staff was delighted to lend support to Food & Friends for a day. The work the organization does to make sure people in need have access to healthy food is absolutely incredible – as are the many staff members and volunteers we met. We look forward to continuing our tradition of partnering with Food & Friends in the years to come,” said Brett Noll, President and CEO. FedChoice’s mission is to serve its members as well as being an integral part of the local community.

Hunger is an issue faced around the world and can be even more acute when someone is battling illness. Food & Friends is the only community-based organization in the D.C region providing home-delivered medically tailored meals and medical nutrition therapy to people with serious illness.

Food & Friends Volunteer Services Team Coordinator Saskia Sams-Yeboah spoke to the impact that volunteers can make. “We are currently packing about 36,000 meals a week, so thanks to the work of your amazing team, FedChoice helped get about 6,000 meals packed.”
