BMC employees collect food for NeighborImpact

Bend Memorial Clinic employees have donated over 1,200 pounds of canned and non-perishable food to NeighborImpact.

“BMC and its employees are proud to partner with NeighborImpact to help those in need in our communities,” said Jamie Bennett, Benefits Administrator at BMC. “As an organization, we believe it’s important to support and participate in charitable and non-profit Central Oregon organizations and encourage our employees to do the same.”

NeighborImpact is a local nonprofit that changes lives by helping families access skills for success, family services, financial assistance, food, housing, heat and energy assistance.

“The need for emergency food continues to grow in Central Oregon, and food drives are extremely important in helping us continue to meet that need,” said Sandy Klein, Food Resource Specialist at NeighborImpact. “We couldn’t do what we do without community partners like Bend Memorial Clinic. The food they collected will help provide approximately 700 meals.”
