Lisa Schaefer has been named “Volunteer of the Month” at the Geneseo-Atkinson Food Pantry for the month of May. She has been a volunteer for eight months at the food pantry, where she restocks shelves and helps guests shop in the food room.
Schaefer has two granddaughters and three grandsons. She enjoys gardening, Genealogy, reading and crossword puzzles.
When asked what she considers to be the best thing about volunteering, she said, ”getting to meet guests, and it’s even better when you can improve their day!”
Her most memorable experience of volunteering is “unloading 1,000 pounds of chicken legs into the freezers.”
Nicole Freadhoff, assistant director at the Food Pantry, said, “Thank you for all you do, Lisa!”
