Each year, we recognize partners in every category of food bank operations. These partners are "heroes" to the thousands who are hungry in our community and these partners are working every day to end hunger in our region. Unfortunately, we cannot recognize every partner every year. We have tried to select those individuals, businesses, and agencies that best exemplified "partner of the year" during the 2021 calendar year.
For everyone that we recognized at our event, there are dozens of others that made important contributions as well. We thank you all.
