The Greenwood Food Bank will be moving in July to a location across the street from its current building on Greenwood Avenue North.
July 13 will be the food bank's first week in its new location at 1000 Greenwood Ave. N.
Thera Martin, spokesperson for Volunteers of America-Western Washington, which operates the food bank, said the lease for the food bank's building at 9747 Greenwood Ave. N. has ended, and the family that owns the property wants to do something else with it.
Sharon Sykes, manager of the Greenwood Food Bank, said the new space is smaller than the current location, but that it shouldn't be a problem.
“Each month, the Greenwood Food Bank serves approximately 3,000 individuals," Sharon Paskewitz, program director for Volunteers of America, said in an email. "During this transition, Volunteers of America remains committed to serving individuals in the Greenwood community.”
