Dr. Hamilton How and Why Did You Get Involved with White Pony Express
Channel: White Pony Express
Date: 10/04/2023

Well, first, I want to thank charity navigators for featuring White Pony Express.

I'm a retired pediatrician. And I've worked for almost 40 years with the County Health Services Department. 

And I learned that through my years, I learned that at the end of the month, people run out of money, they run out of food, and this is critical for children's growth and development. 

A colleague of mine told me about why Pony Express and when I had a family who came to me because their child was on dialysis and required a special diet. 

It was the end of the month. She could not go to the soup kitchens because her child couldn't eat that food. But I called White Pony Express, and they sent her here. She was able to choose the foods that she needed. That miraculous availability of abundance when it was really, really needed. 

This brought me to be a volunteer. 

At White Pony Express, how lucky are we to come to work every day and witness all of the amazing things you do? From large vehicle donations to fresh food that nourishes our neighbors and from filling our care closets to providing generous monthly gifts that sustain us or simply just giving your time, it’s the love of our volunteers, donors, staff, and community partners that inspires us all daily. 

So, on this Valentine’s Day, we want to say that whether you’ve been with the White Pony Express family for years or you’re just joining our mission, thank you. 

We love your heart, generosity, and commitment to delivering the abundance all around us to those in need because there is no us without YOU! 

On behalf of everyone at White Pony Express, thank you for continuing to believe in a world where everyone is nourished from the inside out. 

Happy Valentine’s Day! White Pony Express: Fighting Food Waste, Hunger, and Poverty in One Delivery Help the Pony Deliver.
