We have been invited to participate in the Upper Arlington Farmer’s Market this year on the first Wednesday of the month. Volunteers will be invited to join staff members at the booths to collect donations and distribute information about our mission. Sign up for June 2,  or July 7, 3:30 – 7:30 pm.

Please note these changes in regular volunteer shifts going forward:

• Starting May 24, we will pick up our semi-monthly order from Mid-Ohio Foodbank at 3 pm. This means the unloading time now start at 3:30 pm. We expect we can unload everything by 5 pm.

Hopefully, this time change will allow more volunteers to participate.

We are working as a team to create a schedule for when there is a Monday holiday. We are hoping to create an alternative schedule that allows us to have the holiday off while still being prepared to serve clients on the following Tuesdays.

Our first trial run of this new plan will be for Memorial Day, May 31.  We understand not everyone will be able to make the change, but we will try this out for Memorial Day and see how it goes. We will cancel all shifts Monday, May 31 and add the following:

• Friday, May 28, 11:30 am – 12:30pm Preshop Shift
• Tuesday, June 1, 7:45 am – 8:30 am Direct Retail Pickup from Giant Eagle
• Tuesday, June 1, 8:30-10:30am Stocking Shift

We are again in a time of transition as we move operations for the drive-thru back outside for warmer weather months. Please be patient as we revise procedures, as new equipment arrives, and while things are still unsettled. Note changes to our regular procedures below in bold

• All volunteers should check in upon arrival in the kitchen of the main church building. Check-in will now be done on the iPad, rather than paper. This check-in process allows volunteers to review and agree to our Photo and Social Media Release, and for parents of minor volunteers to review and agree to our Minor Waiver. We can use the form to better access volunteer contact information in order to keep everyone up-to-date. Lastly, in the event of a positive COVID-19 case among volunteers and/or staff, this will allow for quicker and easier contact tracing.
• Due to numerous safety concerns, all doors will remain locked until the assigned work time. A staff member will unlock the doors needed for each particular shift. Please enter through the kitchen door from the alleyway.
• At the beginning of each new shift, Yohan will greet volunteers and give them each an assignment.
• If there is an active thunderstorm in our area, we cannot safely operate the drive-thru. Should we find it necessary to close, we will notify all scheduled volunteers as soon as possible. We will also make an announcement on social media, a notification on our website, and a recording on our voicemail.

If you arrived here via a link from the weekly email, then you already know! Yohan Kim, our Heart to Heart Volunteer Coordinator, will include a roundup of sorts in our weekly email going forward. This snippet will include volunteer news from the week prior and for the upcoming week for our regular volunteers. For those of you unable to regularly volunteer, you can simply click the button at the bottom of his note to read the blog.

Rev. Sarah Kientz has been leading the Wednesday night drive-thru volunteers since the shift started in November. Thanks to her leadership of the youth and young adult volunteers, we are able to serve more clients weekly by making our pantry more accessible. Sarah will be leaving us and heading to Camp Akita next week, where she will spend the summer with the staff and campers. We will see her back here in the fall to volunteer again. In the meantime, you’ll see Rev. Kate Shaner at the helm on Wednesday nights.

We are excited to announce our newest partnership with Buckeye Vodka.

During their 10th anniversary, Buckeye Vodka is giving back to local communities in need. For each download of the brand’s special anniversary cocktail book, they will donate $5 to Heart to Heart! Show your support and learn more about our partnership here.

This workshop will provide the fundamentals to get started with Pantry Trak at your agency. Participants with learn how to administer the intake process using Pantry Trak and will be guided on best practices for developing an efficient process in registering your clients. For agencies already using Pantry Trak, this workshop will be helpful as a refresher of the basics.

• At this time there is no registration fee to attend – FREE!
• Space is limited! No more than 35 individuals may register.
• This session will be held via ZOOM MEETING. You will receive an email with the Zoom link 48 hours before the training.

The Pop Up Pantry team delivered food directly to clients and their families at the following agency sites during the month of February:

• February 3: Commons at Livingston-40 clients
• February 17: Southpoint Village Apartments-35 clients
• February 24: Commons at Grant-30 clients
• February 26: Hope Recovery Services-30 clients

Monthly totals for 2021:

• January       144
• February     135

Our recent survey of the Pop Up Pantry’s agency sites identified the need for personal care items.  In an attempt to address these needs, diapers were distributed to families at Southpoint Village Apartments.  Masks and hand sanitizer were provided to clients at Hope Recovery Services. Additionally, coats and winter clothes were donated to Hope by the Trading Post and the Mat Makers provided six sleeping mats for some of their clients who are homeless.

Inclement weather required adjustments to our weekly Wednesday schedule in February. However, we were still able to deliver food to all four of our current agency sites. With the exception of one week, the Pop Up Pantry team has continued to bag food outside in spite of the cold and snowy weather this winter.  Our volunteers have become real cold weather warriors!  We’re grateful for their perseverance and dedication to our clients.

We are looking forward to spring and planning for expansion of the Pop Up Pantry when it is safe to do so based on pandemic guidance.  We continue to be blessed by the opportunity to serve clients in their local communities and for the ongoing support of the H2H leadership.
