Listen "Helping people is more expensive"
Episode Synopsis
It doesn't require an economist telling us that inflation is rising to know that the cost of living is going up. And that is impacting groups and agencies that help people who were struggling even before the price of groceries started to climb. Parker Street Food and Furniture Bank is seeing more clients these days. And as the largest independent, non-affiliated service, they have to come up with ways to manage their inventory with demand rising. Amgad Zaky is their Director of Donor Relations. He shares with us the legacy of founder Mel Boutlier, the challenges of the past few months and the campaign to purchase a new truck for deliveries.
