FRESNO, Calif (FOX26) \u2014 The Central California Food Bank (CCFB) is set to break ground on its new Sant\u00e9 Volunteer Center, a 23,000-square-foot facility designed to enhance volunteer impact and strengthen hunger relief efforts across the region.<\/p>\n
After three years of planning, the groundbreaking ceremony marks a significant milestone for CCFB, which relies on over 7,000 volunteers annually to sort produce, pack boxes, and feed neighbors in need. <\/p>\n
The new center will feature expanded packing and sorting areas, training rooms, and a USDA-certified Protein Repack Room, all supported by the George & Melodie Rogers Foundation. <\/p>\n
The Rogers family will announce their substantial contribution as the first supporters of CCFB\u2019s Volunteer Center Capital Campaign. <\/p>\n
The project aims to empower volunteers and transform hunger relief efforts for generations to come.<\/p>\n
The groundbreaking takes place Tuesday morning at the Central California Food Bank, located at 4010 E. Amendola Dr., near Cedar and North Avenues in Fresno.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FRESNO, Calif (FOX26) \u2014 The Central California Food Bank (CCFB) is set to break ground on its new…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":78433,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[112,114,113],"class_list":["post-78432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fresno","tag-fresno","tag-fresno-headlines","tag-fresno-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78432"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78432\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
