Giving Back

We are excited to share photos from our recent JBM Gives Back Day team event at the Samaritan House of San Mateo County.

The Samaritan House is the largest truck-to-table food distributor in San Mateo County. Last year, they prepared and distributed over 4.8 million hot meals and grocery bags to neighbors facing food insecurity.

Our team was engaged in various tasks, such as filling food boxes for hospital deliveries, loading packaged food into cars at the drive-in food bank, and assisting at the free food market.

Here are some highlights from our team:

"The seven of us were divided into three groups, with one group even handling two separate jobs in a short time. It truly shows how many lives the organization touches."

"I’m always grateful for those who do this important work every day. The staff relies on volunteers like us to serve the community. These individuals ensure there’s food on people's tables. Truly grateful."

"It was wonderful to work together as a team and experience everyone's dedication and spirit of giving!"

We look forward to continuing this event and expanding our philanthropic efforts. A big thank you to Samaritan House of San Mateo County!
