The Penny Wayne Humanitarian Award is presented each year to an organization that goes beyond the norm to help individuals and families that are fighting hunger. It is only fitting that FreshPoint Southern California, whose donations of fresh fruits and vegetables are vital to the Food Bank’s operations, was awarded this honor.

Diane Wayne Woods and Barry Woods helped to present the 2017 Penny Wayne Humanitarian Award to FreshPoint for its continued generosity and support in our “Fighting Hunger – Feeding Hope” campaign. Several FreshPoint staff members were on hand to accept, including Pres. Verne Lusby, Food Safety Manager Luis Hernandez, Food Safety Spec. Hector Zendejas, and Marketing Coordinator Emma Ledezma. Thank you FreshPoint for your vision and mission to help others with a high standard in all that you do.
