HSE Student Leader Erik Allen Feeds Families Not Landfills

2016/2017 School Year
K-12 Food Rescue Student Leader
​Erik Allen

​I am a student at Hamilton Southeastern Intermediate Junior High. I heard about the Food Rescue program from the Williamson family because they are close friends with my family. I needed service hours for Boy Scouts. However, I continued with Food Rescue long after my hours were completed. It is a simple thought.....stop turning good food into trash. Instead "rescue" it and give it to someone in need. I went in each Monday morning before school and I would count the food and put it into a data base that I shared with the cafeteria manager and our principal. I also recommended to more scouts to take my place since I will be in the high school next year. I will continue to help with Food Rescue in the high school.
