Mid-Ohio Food Drive Results!

The results are in... the Twoshirts.org network of Grove City gathered an amazing 4,703 items and $2,403! But what's really amazing is that it weighed 4,882 pounds!!! According to the Mid-Ohio FoodBank, one pound of food is equal to one meal. As a team, we provided 4,882 meals. Great Job!

The climax of our food drive was the weekend of June 21 & June 22. We literally received 95% of our food in 48 hours! It was an absolutely spectacular site to see about 400 bags of food spread out like an ocean on the floor of my company's warehouse. I give you my sincerest apologies for forgetting to take that picture! On June 22nd, ten volunteers were hard at work counting and boxing those items. It was amazing to see so much food get neatly boxed in less than two hours. We were like a well oiled machine!

In the end, we filled 90 medium-sized boxes with food and stacked those boxes on 5 pallets. A driver for the Mid-Ohio FoodBank stopped by my company's warehouse on June 30th to pickup the food. It was really satisfying to see all of our hard work come to completion.

The Grove City Vineyard Group is conducting a food drive to benefit the Mid-Ohio Food Bank for the whole month of June! Why not join us? This is an excellent opportunity for church small groups, employers, and individuals to make an impact in Central Ohio. Our goal is to collect 25,000 items and $2,500 dollars by June 25th!
