The Guest:
Cathy Snyder is the Founder and Executive Director of Rolling Harvest Food Rescue, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit gleaning organization. After a decade of working a sales career in broadcasting, Cathy began her social impact journey and awakened to the depth of food insecurity while volunteering at a food pantry in New Hope, PA. Since then, what started as Cathy’s efforts to connect farms and food pantries has grown into Rolling Harvest Food Rescue, a vibrant network of volunteers, farms, food producers, and hunger relief sites. Through effective delivery and distribution of local food producers’ surplus, Rolling Harvest Food Rescue increases access to donated fresh produce and other healthy foods to hunger-relief sites that serve at-risk, food-insecure populations—including domestic violence shelters, low-income senior centers, children and family homeless shelters, and others.

2 年So inspirational - and eye opening. When I think of New Hope PA I think of an upper and upper middle class area. It goes to show we can't anything for granted. There are food insecure people everywhere and maybe especially in our "fancy" zip codes. Thanks you Ana Melikian, PhD once again for your eye-opening podcasts.!

2 年It is so true that we take so much for granted. I spent my childhood in poverty, so I can definitely relate to being in need. That being said, I must admit that I'm not doing much to help others, now that I have so much more than I need... This inspires me to remember where I came from and do more for others. Thanks for the episode, Ana Melikian, PhD!
