CanDo! Lunch In 2021 A Virtual Experience
Please join us for the Can Do! Lunch In, a virtual event on Friday, April 9 at noon. Our 2021 Can Do! Award recipient is Get Shift Done. Founders Patrick Brandt and Anurag Jain had the innovative idea to hire out-of-work restaurant employees to provide manpower for nonprofit agencies that had lost staff and volunteers due to COVID-19. Through the efforts of these workers, the Wilkinson Center Food Pantry has been able to serve over 2,000 individuals a month during the pandemic.
