In March and April this year, Gleaners Community Food Bank saw their food distribution rise from 7.5 million pounds to 10.8 million pounds, a stunning 45% year over year increase.Today we are joined by Rachelle Bonelli, Gleaners' Vice President of Programs. She explains how they saw the pandemic coming, and what steps they took in their supply chain to ensure they could meet the increasing food needs of those living in Southeast Michigan..This included providing meals for kids who were all of a sudden out of school in March instead of June. Gleaners also expanded their partnerships with  health departments, the National Guard, and other organizations in the 5 counties they serve.Each one of Gleaners' 70 sites serves approximately 300 households, opening on a bi-weekly basis, and providing healthy food in a safe, non-contact way.  They've also been providing shelf-stable food boxes to those who can't - or shouldn't - leave home.Resources:Gleaners Community Food Bank Website: https://www.gcfb.org/Gleaners Phone Number: 313-923-3535.Michigan Motors Forward is produced by JAG in Detroit Podcasts in collaboration with Tanner Friedman Strategic Communications.https://jagindetroit.com/https://tannerfriedman.com/
