Our thanks to everyone for all of their support in making Global Youth Service Day #GYSD19 a success. Difference Makers rescued 2500lbs of food from Imperfect Foods, Wegmans, and KOL Foods, brought awareness to the plight of food insecure families, and celebrated the volunteers that make Kokua Foods possible. Special thanks to Mayor Kate Stewart for coming out and helping with the distribution and to Youth Service America and Sodexo Foundation – STOP Hunger for their generous #YSAgrant to Small Things Matter that provided families in need with cotton reusable totes filled with healthy recipes and tees for our volunteers. Small Things Matter will be using our additional funding to purchase shelving and containers to help support a new food pantry at Montgomery Blair High School next year. #youthservice #YouthChangingTheWorld
