One of the most fulfilling aspects of KindWorks is helping inspire people to find their volunteer passion -- perhaps even their life's calling. Jenny, a dear friend and former neighbor who now lives and works on her farm, grows organic vegetables, and is committed to food justice, took a lead in our HarvestShare project last spring; she became even more committed to the issues around food insecurity in our community and became determined to do something about it. A few months ago, she launched her own initiative, soon a nonprofit, called "Community Farm Share", which links local farmers, families in need of fresh produce, and those who want to help. Jenny's working with seven farms in the western and eastern side of the County who get paid, through our support, to raise extra produce that is shared with food insecure families. She's already raised enough to provide 30 families with weekly shares of fresh vegetables for the whole growing season, and identified dozens more families in need through the help of food assistance providers--and she's just getting started! As her friend told her: "You're doing the work you cannot not do." Please learn more about and support Community Farm Share. And let us help you find 'the work you cannot not do'. https://www.communityfarmshare.org#humanKINDbySalma#kinddemic#dokindworks
