COMMUNITY OUTREACH - THERE ARE TWO MAIN WAYS WE ENGAGE WITH OUR COMMUNITY. ONE IS FOR US TO SIMPLY GO WHEN INVITED TO GROCERY STORES, SCHOOLS, BUSINESSES AND COMMUNITY EVENTS. ANOTHER WAY IS BY PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL AND VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES TO THOSE IN OUR COMMUNITY. EVENTS LIKE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TOURS, I-TECH DAY, KIDS FIRST, AND YOUTH EFFORTS AGAINST HUNGER ARE ESPECIALLY FOCUSED ON ENGAGING WITH THE YOUTH IN OUR COMMUNITY.FARMING AND GLEANING - BEGINNING IN 2009, CLARK COUNTY FOOD BANK INCREASED ITS COMMITMENT TO PROVIDE FRESH, HEALTHY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES BY GROWING THEM. WITH THE HELP OF VOLUNTEERS, A TEN-ACRE PLOT AT HERITAGE FARM PRODUCES AND LOCAL DONATED GROUND PRODUCES OVER 100,000 POUNDS OF FRESH VEGETABLES FOR THE FOOD BANK EACH YEAR. GLEANING EVENTS, INVOLVING NUMEROUS VOLUNTEERS, GROWERS, FARMERS' MARKETS AND DONORS, HELP CONNECT CLARK COUNTY FOOD PANTRIES WITH LOCAL GROWERS, UTILIZING FOOD THAT OTHERWISE MAY GO TO WASTE.
