On Monday, Jan. 19, Kaiser Permanente marked its 15th consecutive year of service in Clark County on Martin Luther King Jr. Day as part of its annual MLK Days of Service. During the event at the Clark County Food Bank in Vancouver, Wash., 82 volunteers inspected and repacked 25,200 pounds of food, helping provide approximately 21,000 meals for Clark County neighbors experiencing food insecurity.
The Clark County volunteer effort was one of 56 service projects supported by Kaiser Permanente across Oregon and Southwest Washington as part of its 22nd annual MLK Days of Service. In total, more than 600 volunteers participated regionally, contributing time and labor to address hunger and other social factors that affect community health.
“As Kaiser Permanente Northwest marks more than two decades of service on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we are proud to once again invest in our community by helping provide nutritious food to families and individuals facing food insecurity,” said Wendy Watson, president of Kaiser Permanente Northwest.
Food insecurity remains a persistent challenge for many households in Clark County, with access to nutritious food closely tied to long-term health outcomes. Kaiser Permanente’s continued investment in local volunteer efforts reflects its commitment to building healthier communities in Clark County by addressing both immediate needs and the broader conditions that influence health and well-being.
