OUR TEAM
The talented individuals who make up Foodbank Lakeside’s dedicated and compassionate team each bring unique expertise and experiences to the organization. Though everyone serves a different role, each person is committed to helping feed the Mexican people at Lakeside.
OUR VALUES
From our local coordinators, who access and monitor needs in the communities we serve, to the administrative volunteers who handle marketing, finances, volunteer recruitment and program management, we seek to treat the recipients of our programs as we would wish to be treated: with RESPECT and KINDNESS.
In all our dealings with the community – partnerships with other organizations, volunteers, donors and the community at large – we strive for COLLABORATION, TRANSPARENCY and ACCOUNTABILITY. Because we take our coordination of this community response to food poverty very seriously, we are committed to following best practices and making the most of the resources with which we are entrusted.
- Respect and Kindness: We treat all our recipients, donors and volunteers with equality, dignity and kindness.
- Transparency and Accountability: We provide full transparency in all our operations, including the criteria we use to select recipients and distribute products.
- Collaboration: We value and honor input from our community at large, our donors, our volunteers and the families who benefit from our services.
