The Oregonian – "A Tax Break That Feeds The Hungry"

Food Drive

MFS AmeriCorps member Jeremy Carter was recently featured in the Oregonian for his work with the Conscious Alliance Food Drive and the Oregon Food Bank. David Sarasohn writes:

“As this year’s AmeriCorps worker at Lynch Wood Elementary School, working with students and families, he knew about the needs at the high-poverty school, where all the students get free breakfast and lunch daily. So when the Oregon State grad’s second employer, the 671st Engineer Company — he’s a reservist — had 18 frozen turkeys remaining from a donation from Safeway, he had an idea what to do with them. Then it was just a matter of telling his manager at his third job, at Dutch Bros. Coffee, not to be surprised if 18 turkeys spent a few days in the business’ refrigerator.”
