💭 Impact: Unexpected food donation feeds hundre 💭 Impact: Unexpected food donation feeds hundreds in New Mexico⁠ .⁠ On November 5, Farmington (New Mexico) Corps Officer Major Tammy Ray received a phone call she didn’t expect. It was a representative from Aramark, a global food distributor that had been contracted with the San Juan Detention Center for both the adult and juvenile facilities. They were no longer working with the detention facilities and had a surplus of food they needed to donate. Would she be willing to receive it at her location? ⁠ .⁠ Later, three full truckloads of bulk foods arrived from Aramark in excess of 10,000 pounds, which was about three weeks worth of food for the detention centers.
