The logistics of getting even one can of pinto beans into the hands of a hungry family is no small feat, but an army of volunteers in the nation's capital is banding together to make it happen.
After the food bank receives pallets of donations, the group divides them up among partners like Martha's Table, a nonprofit in Washington that is helping to distribute the food directly to the individual. Before COVID-19, the organization was focused on education, creating healthy food options and job opportunities, but has since been forced to focus almost solely on community food needs.
Volunteers at Martha's Table in Southeast, Washington, D.C. unload pallets of food before they package them into bags for the needy. Martha's Table volunteers bring in the beans and other food, dividing it up into individual plastic bags. The bags are then transported back into a van and driven back to northeast D.C. to be handed out to the needy the next day.
