Food Finders

In The News

For the past year and a half, Zeek has made a difference at Food Finders by volunteering in every area of the Fresh Market multiple times per week. He first spoke with Joe while looking for a job and hoping to stay busy to grow both physically and mentally. Since then, volunteering has become an opportunity to build friendships, develop new skills, and give back to his community.

Zeek enjoys floating between positions, keeping things interesting while meeting new neighbors and volunteers every day. Through his volunteering, he has strengthened his social skills, developed a greater sense of structure, and even had the opportunity to mentor a young volunteer going through a difficult time. As a four-year Marine veteran who enjoys bowling and previously wrestled, Zeek brings a strong work ethic and a willingness to help wherever he’s needed.

What makes Food Finders special to Zeek is the friendly, supportive environment where staff and volunteers can lean on one another. His experience has reinforced his belief that anyone can need help at some point in life, and everyone should be able to receive it. His advice to anyone considering volunteering? “Just do it!”

Thank you, Zeek, for your hard work, kindness, and dedication to supporting our neighbors and fellow volunteers. We’re grateful to have you as part of the Food Finders family!
