GO Pantry

Junior Board

Junior Board Members 2021-22

Dr. Holly Danneman, GO Pantry Board Member and adult lead for the junior council, along with Matt McIntire, assistant preceptor for the council, led the selection process for the incoming junior board ​members. In addition to Griffin Gould and Vincent Croyle returning for another year, we welcome Corinne Mozea and Jenna Danneman as new members of the Jr Board of Directors. These young men and women have already demonstrated a dedication to serving GO Pantry in their schools and communities. The new ideas they bring to GO Pantry and their voice at our schools will help educate our community on childhood hunger as they lead the Ambassador council through food drives and outreach activities. As junior board members, these students are invited into the leadership of GO Pantry. They participate in board meetings and are involved in the planning and direction of GO Pantry as it strives to meet the needs of local school kids struggling with food insecurity. The students will also be part of GO Pantry’s leadership team for volunteer events and community outreach activities.
