Challenge to Columbus: Feed the Mid-Ohio Foodbank

Mid-Ohio FoodBank keeps the food shelves stocked for a network of more than 530 emergency food pantries, soup kitchens, emergency shelters, senior dining centers, day care and after-school enrichment programs.

In this challenging economic year, people who gave last year are receiving this year. Which makes the annual Operation Feed more important than ever.

For 27 years Operation Feed has provided food for needy families in central Ohio.  Every year, local businesses, government agencies, school children, and civic groups team up to donate critically needed food items and dollars during this community-wide food drive.

Ologie, the Columbus Dispatch, Resource Interactive and others are already collecting cans and checks (Ologie's Givologie campaign poster is above).

So this is my challenge to the rest of Creative Columbus - get involved. Start a food drive at your agency and collect what you can to take care of our community.

And, because I have this handy soapbox, I specifically challenge these Creative Columbus leaders to start Operation Feed drives at their own agencies:

John Randle at Mlicki
Gary Moneysmith at Paul Werth (ACCEPTED THE CHALLENGE! THANK YOU!)
Lara Kretler at Fahlgren (ACCEPTED THE CHALLENGE! THANK YOU!)
Becky Ziegler at SBC Advertising
Billy Fischer at B&A (ACCEPTED THE CHALLENGE! THANK YOU!)
