@robreiner Thank you, Rob! Always loved Albert and my all-time favorite movie is Broadcast News! I enjoyed learning so much more about him!

@UncleCharlie50 I always appreciate your perspective and kindness, especially in challenging times!

#Nonprofits who embrace remote and hybrid work understand the need for work-life balance, but should also be aware of the risks and challenges. To be successful, ensure you have all the right plans and policies in place. https://t.co/BqzZqUURaE

We are beyond thrilled for our MetroMarket Senior Manager, Quinton Ward, who will attend the Next City Vanguard in October. Together with the other Fellows, he will share in the innovation of ideas for urban community planning. #HealHungerSTL https://t.co/sVatzfjtyl

We've teamed up with St. Louis County Library to provide after-school meals for children ages 5–18. Not only do they get a healthy treat, but there are also fun activities to participate in. #HealHungerSTL https://t.co/P1OZETCScS

Roughly one out of every three college or university students in the U-S. is experiencing #FoodInsecurity. This statistic greatly increases when you take into account race, as Black and Indigenous people are far more prone to food insecurity. https://t.co/uDbtDB38Ij

We're teaming up again this year with @thekaufmanfund for their “Food 4 Vets” event. On Friday, 9/23, food will be made available to the first 200 veterans and their families who register at https://t.co/O1o7lmFZZs.

This is the first conference on hunger, nutrition, and health since 1969. The conference's main goal is to find formal solutions to end hunger, improve nutrition, reduce diet-related diseases, and close the equity disparities around them. #FoodConference https://t.co/ayhiZGMX6W

A nonprofit's mission needs to be supported by effective programming. This is where #nonprofit leaders can really step up and make a change, through organizational strategy. https://t.co/1Qcf24ZOUc

Thanks to everyone in the St. Louis region who joins Operation Food Search as we #healhungerstl

Food donations have decreased while the need is more significant than ever, given rising prices and low-income families being the hardest hit. Please consider donating food this fall and into the holiday season as many of our neighbors are experiencing #foodinsecurity.

Thank you to our restaurant partners who participated in #TomatoExplosion! @DeweysPizza presented us a check for their proceeds and all of us at OFS were incredibly appreciative. This wouldn't be possible without all of you who ate there during the month of July. Thank you!

[Ellen Reed-Fox @ereedfox]

Food waste is a big factor in the contribution to #FoodInsecurity. We can all do our part by learning to extend produce shelf life so that it doesn't end up in the garbage. https://t.co/ChPVfS66CA

At Operation Food Search, DEI is a continual process and we have pulled in many resources to help us learn and grow. These 15 questions can help you create or revise your own DEI action plan. https://t.co/9K5lhV5I7g

Operation Food Search COO Carlton Adams recently sat down for an interview with Sauce Magazine to talk about all the different ways we receive food and the organizations through which we distribute it in our efforts to #healhunger. https://t.co/xKonbxq36U

Tomorrow is Shop Out Hunger - A regionwide food drive! This is Operation Food Search’s largest annual food drive, aimed at collecting hundreds of thousands of non-perishable foods to help heal hunger. Shop @SchnuckMarkets @Dierbergs and @ShopStraubs and donate right in the store!

Video is a vital tool to help visualize the message of a #nonprofit. It allows the charity to directly tell its story and the video can be used across a variety of media for different purposes. https://t.co/BFN0r1LRBu

[Ellen Reed-Fox @ereedfox]

In this program that runs through September, local families can pick up boxes full of fresh, seasonal produce at select library branches. We are always thankful to our partners for helping us meet the immediate need for those experiencing #FoodInsecurity.

Employees expect a friendly and collaborative work environment, and seek these attributes when searching for a new job. They want to know if employers talk the talk and care about their workforce. https://t.co/jCzNXxf7zQ
