A Generous Helping: Quality Time in the Kitchen
http://ageneroushelping.blogspot.com/2008/11/quality-time-in-kitchen.html
Friday, November 14, 2008. Quality Time in the Kitchen. During the last week of October, Operation Frontline DC started its first ever satellite series with the Bridges Program of Guilford Elementary School. Guilford is located in Howard County, a region not typically served by the Capital Area Food Bank. However, when I joined a meeting formed by a group of enthusiastic and dedicated collaborative entities, my decision to expand the program was easy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bread for the City.

Monday, September 29, 2008. Making Education Come to Life. By Angela Leone, Operation Frontline Assistant Coordinator, AmeriCorps National Direct. I first learned about Operation Frontline in 2005 when I was exploring career paths. From that moment I knew I wanted to be involved with Operation Frontline either as an AmeriCorps member or a future volunteer. Flash forward. In May 2008 I graduated from. With an M.S. in Nutrition Science. One participant measured sugar, by the teaspoon, into a cup. It was in...

A Generous Helping: May 2008

Tuesday, May 27, 2008. By Ona Balkus, Operation Frontline DC Assistant Coordinator, Americorps VISTA. Last week, the Washington Post ran a series of articles entitled: “Young Lives at Risk: Our Overweight Children”. Highlighting the child obesity epidemic that is causing disease, and in some cases death, for many of our nation’s children. I was impressed and touched by the Post writers’ insight, focus, and sensitivity regarding the issue. Parents also feel the pulls of a basic instinct. When a family is ...

Friday, March 13, 2009. Imagine you experience hunger and food insecurity. What am I asking you to imagine? I'm asking you to imagine that you're. Out of food and you can't buy more food. Not because you don't have time to go to the store, but because you don't have the money to go to the store. Don't have the option of grabbing something to eat at a cafe or a fast food restaurant. You won't be able to eat until you receive credit on your. One that I won't be taking for granted any time soon. Capital Are...

A Generous Helping: August 2008
http://ageneroushelping.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 8, 2008. It's Time to Say Goodbye. I think it’s only fitting that we say goodbye and good luck to Ona on the Blog she created. Ona, a true Blogger at heart and an avid reader of all Blogs related to cooking, came up with the idea to make an Operation Frontline Blog a few months ago. Though I was admittedly skeptical at the onset, I soon realized what a great tool Blogs can be for a program. Blogging allow us, most importantly, to share our experiences with the world. When someone comes int...

Monday, July 28, 2008. Putting the Market into the Food. By Ona Balkus, Operation Frontline DC Assistant Coordinator, Americorps VISTA. In the remarkably pleasant weather on Saturday (a cool breeze during DC July is an invaluable resource), Eric, Betina, and I headed down to the Ward 8 Farmer’s Market for the 3. Class of this series. If I was asked to design a theoretically perfect Operation Frontline class, the concept of this one would come pretty close. The first two classes had pretty measly turnouts...
