Sandy Spies has been chosen as the new director of the Grundy County Food Bank (GCFB), taking the reins from eight-year veterans Carol and Glenn Vanden Bosch, who are retiring.
During the VandenBoschs’ tenure, GCFB grew from a very small food pantry to one that now serves more than 240 families every month.
“They [Carol and Glenn] have led through a time of significant growth and change, and we are profoundly grateful for their leadership and dedication to feeding Grundy’s hungry,” said Spies. “I am excited to fill the position of director because it is important that we continue the mission of the Food Bank.”
Spies also announced that Lucy Campbell has agreed to act as volunteer coordinator, as volunteers are crucial to the operation’s functioning.
Food boxes are prepared every third Tuesday of the month and distributed every fourth Tuesday from 8:30 to 11 a.m. Volunteer meetings are also held at those times.
To volunteer or for more information about GCFB, call (931) 592-3631.
