Record button.
So dessert, I mean, I haven't been
out by where the cars are, but
there's a community.
So we will
capture that.
All right, what's that?
Fred?
We're good to go.
Okay. Volunteer.
Yep. Yeah,
we're open until 6 today.
Alright, so, one more topping and
try to trend that something.
Okay, just doing that.
Okay, yep.
Can you just pull your hair down
behind me? Can you do just do it?
Thank you.
Yeah, I'm not usually wearing, like,
a skirt.
In any energy.
But I thought I might.
Yeah.
What about mine, Cynthia?
Do you need to do that to mine too?
I don't know what your illusion
looks like. I'm sorry.
It looks great.
Wow.
So, with that said,
we're good.
So it was kind of to me that
this was so much better
because then
you had the opportunity
to then get the good
space for the people
that you
need. Is that kind of what it's
like? It's a good way to put it.
I was thinking of that same thing
this morning because, again, it's
we're happy that we're here and that
people are finding us and they're
trusting us.
That's the basic need that they
need, right? It's food.
But it is
sad that people are
in this position to come to us.
So what's the immediate demand
right now as we
still are in the midst of
a snap?
So for us,
it's money.
So we buy things at wholesale.
And so for the community to
give money, but also there's that
tangible thing about giving up
a food donation, handing
that over to us, that's important to
us also.
There's meaning in playing both of
them for different people.
What has it been like here
in terms of numbers
and demand for
help with food?
I can't
keep up with it, to be honest,
but this
isn't edited, though, right?
Well, it is now.
Okay, okay, thank you.
It is, the numbers are,
it's hard to keep up because they're
changing every day.
We just know that there is an
increase in what we've been seeing
over the last several months.
Front track to serve over 20,000
unique individuals this year.
And that's up from last year,
about 18,700.
So a lot of people.
There's a lot to meet.
So Kevin has been the
Founding Director for five years.
You've been Executive Director
for four or five years, how
does this carry with Collins right
now?
And should I say,
there's no comparison.
This is, and I
only want to say crazy, but it is
crazy how much need there is right
now.
So we're looking at numbers just
from last week, serving close
to 5,000 people.
We never thought we'd be able to do
that,
but we're here for the people that
need us.
And in this space, we're looking
forward to a new space in the next
couple months.
If you'll look around and look at
this...
