Important message from Patty!

Greetings Gleaners Family

One of my greatest pleasures is serving as the Program Manager of Philomath Community Gleaners and I consider everyone as part of my family.  It has been a long summer for all of us, and I am grateful  to everyone  that took time out of their busy schedules to help bring in the bounties of the fields and from the stores. I salute you. Also during this summer we had a smaller volunteer pool to respond to calls for help. This issue has been in the forefront of my mind and I cannot come up with the answer, so I come to you and ask "What are we doing wrong?"

I spoke to a wise woman last night and she suggested that we put out a box and allow everyone to tell us what is going right and what is going wrong. This will allow everyone to remain anonymous. 

Please help me to understand.  A problem  cannot be solved without your help.

Thank you
Patty
