Adopt a Shelf
An Easy Way to Keep Our Market Shelves Full
Adopt a Shelf is a new food donation program at KSM. We love food drives! A lot of the food on our shelves come from them. With a food drive we will receive a variety of different food items that need to be sorted and then distributed. The difference with Adopt a Shelf, that it is is a food drive focusing on one needed item category. This helps by:
- Responding to our market needs in a shorter time.
- Needing fewer volunteers to sort, as items can be placed on the market shelf almost immediately if there is an urgent need.
- Having a consistent supply of items that are high in demand, so our clients are able to budget.
- The food donation process becomes transparent.
- Allows the congregation, company or organization to really understand the needs of the community.
- Gives our clients the opportunity to know who is caring for them by highlighting your name and pictures on the adopted shelves.
A shelf can be adopted for a week, two weeks, a month or even longer. The commitment will foster a deeper connection between the donor and client.
