After spending his career as a chef and working as the Vice President of Food and Beverage at FireKeepers Hotel in Michigan, Michael McFarlen saw how much food would get thrown away from the hotel's restaurant every day.
After some thinking, McFarlen came up with a plan to run a restaurant in the community that would also help support a food pantry(食品橱)on the property. After presenting the idea to FireKeepers leadership, they were immediately on board with the plan. In April of 2016, the FireKeepers Hotel and its owners, the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi, bought Fire Station No. 4, a historic firehouse. They renovated(翻新)the building and turned the fire station into a restaurant.
On April 19, 2017, the restaurant, which theynamed The Fire Hub, opened to the public for the first time. At the same time, a food pantry, which they named the Kendall Street Food Pantry(KSFP), opened its door in the back of the building. “It really is amazing, ”Kathy George, the Chief Executive Officer of FireKeepers, told Second Wave Media about the special restaurant designed to support the food pantry. The first year of operation exceeded their expectations. Not only did the restaurant attract customers because of its popularity and sustainability, but the food pantry helped more people in the first year than they ever imagined.
When you think of people using food pantry services, you thinkof homeless or unemployed people. In reality, however, many of the people who have needed the food pantry's help are people that are employed but still struggle to afford to pay for groceries. On top of helping run the Kendall Street Food Pantry, profits from the Fire Hub are also given to nonprofits like the Safe Place and the Food Bank of South Central Michigan Inc. “We're building a responsible business that takes profits and gives to nonprofits,”McFarlen said. “As we get more and more involved, we will give to many other charities and nonprofits.”
4. Why did McFarlen want to set up a food pantry?
A. To recycle waste food.
