Community Connectors
We will have a team of staff and service providers specifically charged with engaging neighbors at the SVdP Georgetown Food Bank as they come to get food on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Our team is trained to enable our neighbors to secure information about other food bank locations, housing assistance, help with utilities, health care, job readiness, education and other benefit areas that they may not know about. We will also refer our neighbors to other beneficial services that are available and with completing applications for enrollment in programs to receive services.
