Cathy Smit has been named “Volunteer of the Month” for October at the Geneseo-Atkinson Food Pantry. She has been volunteering at the food pantry for one year, and assists guests while they shop for food and clothing. She also sorts and displays clothing donations and stocks shelves.
Smit and her husband Alan have three grown children, Maya, Emily and Lucas.
She enjoys crocheting, crafts and thrifting, and she said the best thing about volunteering at the food pantry are the guests. Her most memorable experience is “Scouting for Food” and she added, “It was a wonderful experience that I had with my children for many years and now I get to meet all the clients in the community that this annual event supports.”
Nicole Freadhoff, assistant director at the Food Pantry, said, “Thank you for all you do for our guests Cathy!”
