THOMASVILLE- The Vashti Center, a residential facility dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for children and adolescents in foster care, thrives on the generosity and support of the community. There are numerous opportunities for individuals, groups, and organizations to contribute to the well-being of the youth and enhance their living environment.

One shining example of community support is the recent involvement of the Flowers Foods Procurement Team. On October 29th, a dedicated group of Flowers volunteers gathered at The Vashti Center to undertake a variety of projects aimed at improving the living conditions for children. Their tasks included landscaping, painting, debris removal, and nurturing space for the residents and staff.

“We are incredibly grateful for the hard work and generosity of the Flowers Foods volunteers,” said David Sofferin, Executive Director of The Vashti Center. “Their efforts have made a significant impact on our campus and the lives of the children we serve. This kind of community support is invaluable.”

The contributions from the Flowers Foods volunteers are part of the company’s broader corporate social responsibility program, which emphasizes giving back to the communities where their employees live and work. By engaging in hands-on projects, Flowers Foods aims to foster a culture of service and solidarity.

The day concluded with a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie among the volunteers and The Vashti Center, both expressed their eagerness to participate in future community service activities.
