GleanKY celebrated with some of our dear friends.

Thank you to everyone who came out on Sunday evening for Burgers & Beats! The GleanKY board members and staff had a wonderful time with you, and we deeply appreciate your support for our work to reduce hunger and food waste in Kentucky. We hope you all had as much fun as we did!
