MOSES LAKE Community Services of Moses Lake, a local food bank and regional food distribution center, is still going strong and preparing to implement new grant funding, said CSML’s Operations Manager Peny Archer.
CMSL provides a food bank for residents of Moses Lake and distributes food to 49 food banks across Grant, Adams, Lincoln, Benton, Yakima and Whitman counties, said Archer, who has worked at the food bank for 23 years after starting as a volunteer.
Through my working with Yakima Rotary Food Bank (partnering with Community Services of Moses Lake) and Washington's Faith Action Network (a multi-faith advocacy coalition), I especially appreciate faith communities across our region supporting neighbors who need food, transportation and other emergency assistance. We know one unexpected medical bill or another can put an entire young family into a spiral of crisis.
For Peny Archer, the operations manager for Community Services of Moses Lake, getting food from one location to another has been her careerlong mission.
