Inspired by the life and work of Rudi, a true friend and mentor to the Food Bank of Nevada County, we are honoring his dedication and commitment with Petchek's Perspective.
This monthly column in our newsletter and website will feature comments and perspectives from clients, volunteers and employees. In hopes of providing support and understanding for the challenges faced by our clients and of the importance of making food accessible to those in need. Like his support and good works throughout the years, it is our hope that this will continue to make a difference in our community for years to come.
