VBCC and Sysco worked together to donate over 6 carts of food to the Potter’s House. Everything from bread to cooking oil, orange juice to peppers – was gratefully accepted. The Potter’s House is staffed and operated by volunteers, providing food and services to the homeless, the working poor, and those in crises situations who are residents of Virginia Beach. Potter’s House also works with other local charitable organizations like Seton Youth Shelters and the Southeastern VA Food Bank to distribute food to those in need. More information about Potter’s House can be found here: http://vbumc.org/potters-house-serve/.
In addition to the joy of helping others, donating the food helps VBCC with their goal of keeping 60% of all waste out of the landfill.
