Linn Benton Food Share Has New T-Shirts For Sale

Mike Gibson, Director of Linn Benton Food Share displays the new t-shirts.

CSC's Linn Benton Food Share program has a new line of
t-shirts for sale. The short and long sleeved 100% cotton shirts come in a range of new colors. You can choose from a large food share logo or small pocket sized logo. The t-shirts are priced at $8 for short sleeved and $12 for long sleeved.

The shirts are available at Linn Benton Food Share office located at 545 SW 2nd Street in Corvallis. All proceeds go to the Linn Benton Food Share program to help achieve its goals.

Food Share’s goal this year is to distribute 5 million pounds of food to its 74 member agencies this year—an increase of nearly 200,000 pounds. Food Share can achieve this by expanding their Fresh Alliance pickups to new supermarkets, by purchasing more bulk products such as rice, beans, and cereal, and by taking steps to increase our storage and repackaging areas so they can accept large donations and accommodate the many volunteers who bag up this food into family-size packages.

Welcome to CSC's blog and e-newsletter!

These communications tools can be used to make announcements, acknowledge donors and volunteers, post videos and slideshows–whatever we want to share with our online community.

There are 3 ways to deliver info to stakeholders:

  1. The blog itself, which can be linked to our current website
  2. Email news blasts (blog articles sent via email as eNewsletters)
  3. RSS Feed (subscribers read in Google Reader or other feed reader, can also send posts to Facebook and Twitter)
We're excited about these communication tools and look forward to both your input and feedback for continuing improvement and positive information-sharing.

If you have agency/program information you'd like posted on this blog, please send full text and/or photos and videos, ideas, or suggestions to Janet Hessel and she will take the next steps.

Enjoy!
