We have been celebrating lots of work anniversaries lately! Ken Field, Warehouse Coordinator, is celebrating his 15 years of service with The Idaho Foodbank. On the most impactful part of his experience, Ken says, "Every year in Pocatello, we host a Thanksgiving distribution that serves 900 families. Being a part of a team that works together so well, with the help of 125 volunteers, is heartwarming and fulfilling. It is a reminder of why we do what we do; for all of the smiling, hopeful faces that come through." Eloquently put, Ken. Thank you for all you do! #workanniversary #foodbank #idaho #employeerecognition

The Idaho Foodbank is so grateful to be one of the first recipients of this generous and innovative donation from Chobani! Thank you for being a leading advocate for fighting hunger and increasing food access! We appreciate your year-round support!
Introducing Chobani Super Milk. 💪 You won’t find this product on shelves, and that’s because it’s created for the sole purpose of serving people and communities in times of crisis and need. This week, with our partner American Red Cross, we’ll begin delivering this shelf-stable product to families impacted by disasters across the country.

Congratulations to Jack Robinson, our Vice President of Human Resources. 🎉 Jack has earned his Lean/Six Sigma Green Belt Certification by using the DMAIC methodology to develop programs that adapt to changes, add value to the employee experience, and focused on stakeholder needs. Jack’s project mapped and documented customer value and designed a ‘living’ process to reassess, adapt, and foster continuous improvement over the coming years. By doing this, we strengthen our commitment to our employees, mission, vision, and core values, while making a measurable impact in serving our neighbors. Jack, we are proud of you for leading by example. Once again, congratulations.
