Near what would become the end of a rewarding career at Feed More, shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic began, Sudeshna Das-Menezes found herself fielding numerous calls from people looking for help.
“I worked at Feed More for 16 years, I built the volunteer program, backpack program, hunger hotline, I was attuned to hunger and food insecurity,” she said. “I got a lot of people calling me to get resources, and everything had shut down. It was really tough.”
