OAK PARK, Mich. – As metro Detroit food rescue nonprofit Forgotten Harvest works to respond to rising food insecurity, the strategic addition of four new members to its” board of directors will help cast a wider net for support.
The nonprofit heavily relies on external contributions and collaborations to ensure greater nutritious food access for metro Detroiters experiencing the negative health impacts of food insecurity. The new board directors will stretch Forgotten Harvest’s mission to new ears and helping hands in healthcare, public schools, automotive business, and corporate law.
Forgotten Harvest’s board of directors welcomed Eric Doeh, president of Humana Medicaid Michigan; Machion Jackson, deputy superintendent of operations in Detroit Public Schools Community District; Stacy Lynett, vice president of information technology business applications with General Motors; and Jason Puscas, of counsel at Wolfson Bolton Kochis PLLC.
“Each of our new board directors joins us with their unique expertise and a great passion for creating the healthiest, strongest community possible,” Forgotten Harvest president and CEO Adrian Lewis said. “They’re already diving in with our existing board directors and our newly promoted board chairperson, Rebecca Bray of Epitec, ready and excited to relentlessly serve the Metro Detroit area.”
Each board director will serve with Forgotten Harvest for three years.
