We’re thrilled to welcome Jimmy Choo to the Yolo Food Bank team! 👏

Jimmy joins as our new Director of Operations, officially stepping into the role on July 1. He’ll began working with us on May 19 and spend June in close collaboration with Corkey Mapalo to ensure a smooth transition. Corkey will begin a new role at Yolo Food Bank this July as she focuses her talents on our new “Harvest Program”, an effort to work with local farmers.
