Jane Tusso, President of the Board of the Sedona Community Food Bank, was the featured speaker at its November 20 meeting. A long-time volunteer, Tusso offered an insightful look at the vital work of the Food Bank, which has operated independently for 43 years and serves Sedona, the Village of Oak Creek, Page Springs, and Cornville.
Tusso reported that over the past year the Food Bank assisted more than 9,600 households—representing 13,700 individuals—and distributed 259,000 pounds of food. This effort is made possible through the dedication of 54 volunteers who sustain its day-to-day operations.
The Rotary Club of Sedona Village Community Garden donates fresh produce to the Food Bank during the growing season.
