The most recent visit the food pantry proved to be a bone chilling yet heart warming experience!<\/p>\n<p>Rather than packing non-perishable goods, Yardi Raleigh got a taste of the meat freezer. Volunteers Rose Hiebert, David Minehart, Steve Sharpe and Mike Harrison were responsible for packing 230 boxes of perishable items such as frozen poultry, beef and pork. That\u2019s nearly 7,400 pounds of meat! The proteins will be a part of 6,100 balanced meals to feed those in need.<\/p>\n<p>Conditions in the warehouse were roughly 32 degrees, similar to outdoor temperatures. Volunteers bundled up to sort meats in the boxes and then transport those boxes from the warehouse into the deep freezer, which\u00a0maxed out at -9 degrees.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/giving\/cold-work-warm-hearts\/21496.html\/attachment\/foodbank1\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-21499\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-21499\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/12\/FoodBank1-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"Yardi Corporate giving at Food Bank CENC\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All the teammates were excited to volunteer and looking forward to the project with interest, as none of us had done this particular type of volunteer work before,&#8221; explained Rose Hiebert, Project Manager, CSD at Yardi<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/12\/FoodBank1.jpg\">.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The current event was a good time to share an experience with co-workers, to have the sense that we at Yardi cared about and acted for our larger community, and to share that experience with people from across the Triangle,&#8221; said Rose.<\/p>\n<p>Yardi employees are Energized for Good!
