Feeding America West Michigan is celebrating 40 years of feeding hungry communities. To celebrate, FAWM is recognizing the people and organizations who worked alongside their organization for the past four decades with a special story series.

The series is called 40 Years 40 Faces, which will honor people who have contributed to the fight against hunger over the past 40 years.

Every 40 Years 40 Faces story will be shared on social media and on the food bank’s websitethroughout the year. The series will feature staff and board members, volunteers, farmers, donors and others who have been part of the food bank’s ongoing journey toward a hunger-free community.

Anyone can share their own story or nominate someone else for a chance to be included in the series.

In addition to the story series, the food bank will release a historical timeline and photo album. The food bank welcomes the public to submit photos to be included.
