12 Broadcaster Press n BERGLIN From Page 02 direction, today the pantry enjoys assistance from 80-plus volunteers, filling food boxes, sorting food, dispensing food boxes to families, picking up pizza and bread, picking up vegetables and fruit from the local grocery stores in Vermillion,” Merrigan said, “and running community food drives to help fill shelves with sustenance for those in need in our community.” For the last quarter century, she said, Mary has been busy with a variety of activities, ranging from collecting and organizing food May 13, 2014 www.broadcasteronline.com products, answering emails and phone calls, and writing budgets, to producing a monthly newsletter, training volunteers, filling out funding applications, and sending thank you notes. “Mary is and has been the face of the Vermillion Food Pantry,” Merrigan said, “That means making appearances at food drive efforts, posing for many, many pictures taken with donor checks and with piles of food collected, attending meetings and providing updates to donor organizations, meeting with USD students and campus groups to help increase the volunteer base – all in the name of the Vermillion Food Pantry.” Merrigan noted that Mary would point out that its volunteers have made the Vermillion Food Pantry’s accomplishments possible. “We all know that is true – but the important thing to note is that only through Mary’s leadership and direction did the food pantry volunteer force grow from three or four, to 17 teams with a lead volunteer for each team, to ensure that all needs of the pantry operation would be met with the leadership of many,” she said. In 2013, the Vermillion Food Pantry fed 5,373 people in Clay County. “That number has more than doubled since 2010,” Merrigan said. With her voice breaking with emotion, Merrigan added that Mary’s most important role over the years, which comes to her naturally, is very simple. “It involves her caring heart, and her call to provide for the most basic human need – hunger,” she said.
