The BRICK Executive Director shares what kept her motivated through the expansion of one of the busiest food pantries in Northern Wisconsin

A $154,500 USDA Rural Development Community Facilities grant helped increase the square footage and modernize the Food Shelf at The BRICK

When one of the busiest food pantries in Northern Wisconsin took on a multi-year renovation project, which involved a move to and from a temporary facility, tremendous motivation and flexibility was required of staff and volunteers. The team is led by Elizabeth (Liz) Seefeldt, executive director of The BRICK (Benevolence Resources In Communities Kindred), a faith-based, non-profit organization in Ashland.
