Wabash Center Celebrates Partnership with Food Finders

On the evening of October 22, local volunteers and community organizations gathered for the 2025 Wabash Center Annual Celebration of Achievement, where Food Finders was awarded as one of five “Exemplary Community Partners.” 

This recognition comes thanks to Food Finders’ longstanding partnership with Wabash Center. Those with special needs who utilize Wabash Center’s services volunteer weekly at Food Finders, helping to sort and repack food at the Katy Bunder Food Resource and Education Center, and supporting their neighbors at the Fresh Market. Since 2019, Wabash Center volunteers have accumulated over 1,400 hours of service at Food Finders. 

Among the other award recipients was Greater Lafayette Fairytale Performers, a group led by Rosie Mannin, Manager of Grants and Donor Insight for Food Finders. This dedicated team of eight volunteers brings favorite characters to life, performing for free at community events, volunteering at events at community institutions like Wabash Center, and visiting children in the hospital. We are so proud of our team, not only for the work they do at Food Finders, but for their continued commitment to serving the community outside of work.
