WILL YOU? 5170 Lawrence Place, HYATTSVILLE, MD 20781 www.sharedc.org 301-864-3115 After 25 Years By Jaynee Acevedo As happens every three years or so, the current extension of SHARE’s original lease expires on December 31st. It is a good time to look around at building condition, neighborhood trends, operating costs, and rental rates. Each time, in the past, there have been compelling reasons to stay at Lawrence Street. Now, there are strong arguments to move. I’m not sure what happened in the first 45 winters and summers since the place was built, but in the last 25 years, the warehouse has survived 300 or so SHARE distributions, a few hurricanes, and an earthquake. The freezer and chill box both leak and break down, and their age and inefficiency make for extremely high electric bills. Contractors tell us the roof is now too thin to walk on, so they can only apply light weight patches that last a few weeks or months. Then, there’s the matter of rent. By signing a new lease at Lawrence Place, SHARE and Catholic Charities would be committing to a 60% increase in monthly rent, which didn’t make sense, especially in a building of this condition. At first, when we looked around we could not find affordable space large enough in location central to all of our SHARE Host Sites. Then, in late October, the perfect property came on the market. The Hubbard Road address offers a terrific location, good open space, fantastic and spacious loading docks at the back of the building, natural light in the offices and the warehouse, plenty of parking out front, and more office space than we have now. The landlord agreed to a discounted rent because of the work we do, and a move began to feel possible. The biggest challenge: no refrigeration. Contractors provided bids on new units and installation, which the Catholic Charities Board approved at their December 8th meeting. We are honored that the entire Catholic Charities team is behind us, so willing to invest the money to create our new home. The expense is significant, as is the amount of time it will take to install, so the plan is to operate from mobile refrigeration units until construction is complete. As I write this, the lease is being finalized for signatures, so now you can see why the move is happening so fast! I’m not sure it has fully sunk in with us, even with all the packing going on. Naturally, our primary focus is on the Christmas Distribution. Leaving Lawrence Place will be difficult after so many wonderful years here, yet we are committed to a bright future in a fresh space. Our office move should be complete by January 6th, 2016, and the warehouse should be settled by the 8th. No date on the new refrigeration since we haven’t even taken possession of the warehouse yet. Still, we are all working hard to make Hubbard Road a warm and welcoming reality as quickly as possible. And, we look forward to seeing each of you at SHARE’s new home, in the New Year. New Space, New Banners We will be carefully packing, gently moving, and lovingly re-hanging all the wonderful banners we have on the wall now. If you are ready to update the banner you have at SHARE, or wanting to bring one over? This is the time!

By Bill Black Change is exciting, and it can also be a bit scary. Moving a facility after more than 25 years in the same place, no matter how you look at it, is an adventure! Some may ask why move at all? Our current warehouse has served us well for many years. We distribute tens of thousands of pounds of food through it every month. Why do we need a new warehouse? “If it ain’t broke, why fix it?” In fact, many elements of our existing warehouse are “broke.” SHARE FOOD NETWORK SHARE Food Network, Central Warehouse 5170 Lawrence Place, Hyattsville, MD 20781 PO Box 768, Bladensburg, MD 20710 Office: 301.864.3115 Fax: 301.864.5370 SHARE Fredericksburg 44 Mill Drive, Fredericksburg, VA 22408 SHARE Baltimore @ Meals on Wheels 515 South Haven Street, Baltimore, MD 21224 SHARE Southern Maryland 6520 Industrial Park Drive, Hughesville, MD 20637 SHARE Western Maryland 14 East All Saints Street, Frederick, MD 21701 Contributors Vicky Williams, Bill Black, Jaynee Acevedo Web address: www.sharedc.org Since our lease was up for renewal, we decided it was time to think about moving. As anybody who has been to our warehouse recently knows, it has been showing its age. The roof leaks. Our aging refrigerator is inefficient and sometimes breaks down. There are also some problems (like inadequate parking, and needing a shoe horn to position an 18-wheeler at a dock) that we’ve simply learned to live with. The new warehouse offers improvements across the board, and will make our monthly distributions much easier for host sites. Parking will be more plentiful and convenient. And the entrance has no stairs. Also, there will be a real reception area at the front of the building. Paperwork processing and payment will take place in the offices in the front, while the food distribution takes place at the loading docks in the back; a much smoother process with much better flow.

Because we deal with meat and fresh fruits and vegetables, the quality of the food is extremely important. Here’s where the new facility will really shine. We will be installing a new, state of the art, refrigeration system. It will be more reliable and more efficient. The new equipment will help us save money on our monthly electric bill. Finally, there is the location. It is only four miles from our existing site and more accessible from a number of main roads. For some of our customers it might add a few minutes and for others it may be closer. But we will be Total Packages: staying in the same general neighborhood.

Nebo (GMN) A.M.E. Church in Bowie, Maryland, led by Pastor Rev. Dr. Jonathan L. Weaver, has been a SHARE participant for nearly 23 years. The founders were Daisy Stith, Eric Williams, Theresa Grant, Hamilton, Laura Miller, Gerri Lynch, Elizabeth Coates and Robert Coates. The SHARE team at GMN has enlisted a remarkable group of people in support of the mission of providing fresh, healthy food to those in the community who need it. There are more than a dozen devoted members who pick up, bag, drive, and help coordinate all of the activities that make the SHARE Ministry a great success. Founder Daisy Stith, 88 years old, is still working, making courtesy calls to all the participants the night before delivery and by bringing a delicious breakfast to all SHARE team members. Lenny Williams is up before dawn to direct the 4:30 am transportation committee with dedicated drivers and baggers Robert Adair and Anthony Payne. They are assisted by Marc Rogers and Vernon Owens who are also members of the pickup crew. Eugene Williams and Lenny Williams are SHARE Ministry advisors. The food is handed off to GMN’s faithful 6:00 am baggers who include Lorraine Willis, Florie Purnell, Rachael Purnell, Linda Jones, Wendy Jenkins and Eugene Williams. They also deliver curb side service with a warm and Godly smile to their customers. SHARE volunteers are rewarded by the warm feelings that come from serving others with nutritious food. In fact, the GMN SHARE team often prays with recipients funds to help seniors and families who need assistance in purchaswhen they bring their food. ing their Value Packages.

Here’s a story that came to us from Vickie Williams at the Greater Mt. Nebo A.M.E., this month’s Host Site of the Month: At one distribution, a SHARE customer arrived with three young children. One of the children was a shy little girl who watched quietly as the SHARE team brought out the food for her family. She looked at Vickie with her eyes glowing like it was Christmas morning with lots of gifts under the tree and asked with wonder “is all this food for us?” Vickie said, “Yes, sweetheart, it is.” The little girl smiled broadly. When all three of them got to the door, they came running back and surrounded Vickie, putting their arms around her waist in a big hug. Then, they turned and left waving at the SHARE team. As Vickie said, “That moment made us realize this is why we get up early in the morning and volunteer with this wonderful SHARE Program.” Page 3 tables.” Each month, she works extra hard to expand the sponsorship program by emailing and making personal calls to friends, conducting visits to companies in the community and, especially, talking with the church family who are strongly supportive of the program. The GMN SHARE ministry also provides community service hours to school students. And it provides assistance to the heads of households by helping them to become more self-sufficient and connecting Continued onto page 7 SHARE FOOD NETWORK SHARE Sites, by Zip Code Satellites highlighted in gray have a $1 charge to help cover transportation costs WASHINGTON, DC 20001 SHARE at 10th Street Baptist 1000 R Street, NW Betty Marshall, 202-232-1685 Curlie Williams, 202-832-9582 SHARE at Holy Redeemer Catholic 206 New York Ave, NW Edward Monroe Jr. 202-5260264 SHARE at Lincoln Park United Methodist 1301 N Carolina Ave, NE Joseph Graham 202-889-4823 SHARE at Freedom Baptist 1519 U St. NW Deacon Thomas Giles 301-9222899 SHARE at Metropolitan Wesley AME Zion 1712 N Capitol St. NW Candida Johnson 202-2325415 Beverly Washington 202-4833262 SHARE at Mt.

The GMN team is seeking to enlist other churches and organizations as partners to grow the SHARE program. For example, they have a partnership with Alzenia Hamlin and others at her Senior Resident’s Building and with Evelyn Wallace, President of the Missionary Society. The GMN SHARE Ministry is also indebted to the office staff at the church. Tabitha Washington promotes the ministry to the church membership through the Revelation Weekly News Letter. Vida Lawson, and Alfonso Jones pro- vide the SHARE ministry video announcements. Additionally, thanks go to Vida Lawson for managing the books. Audrey Hamilton, Patrick Lynch, Deidre Singleton, John Simms, and Antwan Griffin help the program by opening the doors of the church on delivery days between 5:45 am - 6:00 am. Sandy Scott is the team member who makes sure the SHARE flyers are printed. As Vickie Williams says, “We thank God for leading this great ministry and thank Pastor Jonathan L. Weaver for his support. We’ve come this far by faith and we are depending on God to guide our future endeavors.” Mail your survey to: 5170 Lawrence Place, Hyattsville, MD 20781 or fax it to: 301-864-5370 PAGE 7 SHARE FOOD NETWORK No Small Feat Behind the SHARE staff, helping with this big and exciting move is an army of supporters.
