YMCA Clay County Youth Food Delivery Program
We are the Clay County Youth Food Delivery Program. This is our picture and logo. This is a picture of the thank you card we received from a child in 2017 after we sent food home on the weekend for the child. No child should "werry" about their next meal. We are a community working together to do all we can to ensure kids don't "werry" on school breaks We deliver food to the children in Clay County for weekends, daily during summer breaks and we deliver 2 weeks of shelf-stable food for Christmas Delivery thanks to Duke Energy and our community to helps fill the need left for volunteers and financial donations. We are a community working together and doing the impossible.

1. What is your favorite thing about food packing?
"My favorite thing about packing food is experiencing the body of Christ working together to serve!"
2. What made you get started packing?
"I started packing because of my involvement in the summer program. It was a natural progression. When you see the kids and know the stories, it is easy to motivate and participate."
3. How long have you been “working” for the food delivery program?
"I think I’ve been 'working' since the first day; if not day one, shortly thereafter. The changes are unbelievable!"
4. What is your usual job on packing day?
"On packing days I feel like a jack of any trade. I will carry food down, pack in the assembly line and then deliver totes to a school or two."
5. How have you been blessed by “working” for the program?
"I cannot count the ways I’ve been blessed by the food program! Friendships are among the biggest. Seeing the community work together with a common heart blesses me tremendously!"
We love our volunteers!
