Thursday was a special occasion as Prodisee stakeholders of various levels and backgrounds broke bread together to renew their commitment to help the hungry of Baldwin County. The number of families who’ve been helped since 2003 is staggering.
) - Prodisee Pantry in Spanish Fort reached a milestone this year. It’s now been fighting hunger in Baldwin County for 20 years. Prodisee held its Fill the Plate luncheon Thursday, April 20, 2023 celebrating where the organization’s come from and spreading the message of hunger and its impacts.
“You look back and it’s humbling,” said Prodisee Pantry executive director, Deann Servos. “We’ve had over two hundred thousand family visits in twenty years. That means five hundred thousand individuals have eaten food that Prodisee Pantry volunteers packaged and distributed.” A focus for Prodisee Pantry this year is to spread the message of hunger awareness to young people. Over lunch, supporters watched videos of area school children, giving their perspective on the impact hunger has. Some even put it to verse. Those who’ve been with Prodisee from its inception are proud to see the youth involvement.
Prodisee Pantry fills more than just the stomachs of the hungry each week. It partners with several agencies who interview families and determine what other needs they may have. The network of community volunteers is crucial, but Prodisee Pantry couldn’t offer all these services without additional partnerships and support of corporate sponsors.
