INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Cindy Hejlik has been promoted to Indian River County Community Relations Coordinator for Harvest Food & Outreach Center.
In her new role, Hejlik will represent the nonprofit in the community at speaking engagements, along with organizing food and clothing drives, fundraising efforts and partnering with local businesses and organizations.
Cindy began volunteering at Harvest Food in September 2010 because of her belief in their mission to offer a hand up to individuals wanting to break the cycle of poverty.
In December 2010, she took on the position of Volunteer Services Coordinator and has carefully matched task with talent since that time.
“I have enjoyed being the Volunteer Coordinator for the past year and a half. There are just so many people waiting to give back to the community, and I could help them do just that,” explained Cindy. “Now I get to go out and proactively share with others how we can help them make a change for the better.”
Harvest Food’s mission is “To provide a hand up for those in need, helping them to break free from poverty by offering hunger relief, crisis care, transformative education, and employment training opportunities.”
They have two campuses in Vero Beach which serve over 350 families a day.
