Aaron Umen has also volunteered extensively with the Food Recovery Network in Ohio since 2018. With over 100 volunteered hours logged, Umen has helped to deliver and repurpose over 300 pounds of food that would have otherwise been wasted. This initiative has proven exceptionally eye-opening for Umen. The experience continues to instill within him a deep consideration for resourcefulness and world hunger. Local in approach, Food Recovery Network delivers and serves uneaten food from Case Western dining halls to be repurposed at local soup kitchens. St. Augustine Church and Hunger Center and St. Matthews United Methodist Church are among the initiative’s primary partners.
