Arriving late, Brad and National Vice Chief Eddie Stumler stood in the back of the audience behind two young Arrowmen during the opening flag ceremony. Unnoticed by the two, Brad and Eddie overheard their conversation. They wanted to meet and talk with the national officers, but they remained unsure how to introduce themselves. As the two turned around following the ceremony, they recognized the national officers and became tongue-tied. Brad and Eddie quickly introduced themselves and engaged the two young Arrowmen in conversation.

    Media Contact: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Heidi Cannella Communications Specialist c: 801.599.6700 o: 801.887.1278 e: [email protected] LOCAL SCOUTS HOPE TO COLLECT OVER 1 MILLION MEALS Statewide food drive to be held on 3/19 will benefit 423,000 Utahns facing hunger SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH – March 14, 2016 – Utah Food Bank and its partner agencies across the state are working with the Boy Scouts of America to help Fight Hunger Statewide during the 30th annual Scouting for Food, scheduled for Saturday, March 19. This food drive comes at a critical time when supplies at Utah Food Bank and emergency food pantries are beginning to thin following the holiday season, and the effort has provided the equivalent of close to 8 million meals since 2010 alone. Scouts will be going door-to-door across the state to distribute reminders to Utah residents during the week of March 14. Utah residents are encouraged to fill any bag or box with non-perishable food items to leave on their doorstep by 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, March 19, when Scouts will return to pick up the food donations. All donations will be delivered to Utah Food Bank, regional food banks, and emergency food pantries statewide. Alternatively, donations can be dropped off at your local food pantry or regional food bank, or at Utah Food Bank, located at 3150 South 900 West in Salt Lake City. Residents who receive door hangers as reminders are also able to support the Scout’s efforts financially by taking their door hanger to any Smith’s Food & Drug Store between March 18 and March 21, where they can donate at check stands.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    President & CEO Message After my first complete year as President & CEO, I can safely say I am immensely proud of the work we do, and the way we do it, to feed the 374,000 Utahns facing hunger. With an amazing staff, aided by an army of volunteers, and the support of our community, we distributed 45.7 million pounds of food last year. That's 38 million meals! It was the highest distribution year in our 115-year history, a milestone that’s hard to celebrate when the number of food-insecure Utahns had been declining in the past few years. This indicates that while there may be fewer Utahns facing hunger, they are needing more help, and for longer periods of Ginette Bott President & CEO time, than before. The growth and success of our Mobile School Pantry program in recent years has been remarkable. At the same time, it uncovered an unexpected need—the lack of resources at some of our local schools is so great that food needs to be available to students and their families every day. To that end, we expanded our in-school pantry program, which is now offered in 23 local schools and universities. Adding in-school pantries has enabled us to expand our Mobile School Pantry program, adding new locations in Utah and Washington Counties, which raised our total to 69 sites. Kent Liston 2019 also brought with it a federal government shutdown. This crisis was unlike any we had seen in recent Chief Financial Officer history. It shone a light on the many Americans struggling to keep afloat, with millions just one financial setback away from disaster.
