CHARLIN FLORES
Customer Service Coordinator

Danisha plays an integral role in fighting hunger at the food bank.  She may be the first person who greets you at the door or the first voice you hear on the phone, but in addition to that, Danisha is instrumental in scheduling, organizing, and reporting for our programs, all while interacting and keeping our partner charities happy. One of Danisha's favorite things to do is spend time with her girls at the "happiest place on earth"...Disneyland!  

Ralph, also known as Ralphie, works alongside Sam at the dock. He likes to help our neighbors in need by giving it 110% each and every day. To keep himself energized for the day, he listens to music-- particularly "Ice Cube." During his off-time, Ralph enjoys hiking the trails in Utah.

Sam is one of the most experienced members of our team with nearly 20 years at FARSB! From inventory to physical counts he keeps the loading zone in tip-top shape! Sam has an exceptional work ethic and truly values the importance of his work. On weekends, he enjoys comic books, movies, and audio books. 

Charlin is dedicated to helping feed neighbors in need and is quick to move the distribution process so partner charities get the food they need faster. Not only is she working hard at FARSB, but she’s also working hard at EMT school where she hopes to become a paramedic in the near future. Some of her favorite activities include taking her son out on his tricycle, hiking, and reading classic books such as her favorite “To Kill a Mockingbird”.

Cesar is active in and outside of the food bank. When he is not helping prepare much needed USDA food for distribution, he enjoys watching sports and spending time with his daughter and son. Cesar is a fan of dancing and music, though he admits he is not the best dancer. When asked what he likes the most about working at the food bank, he responded, "working at the food bank is fulfilling. Everyday brings an endless bounty of opportunity."

Jorge is a pro when it comes to driving a forklift and semi-truck to help distribute food out into the community on behalf of the food bank. During his time off, Jorge enjoys visiting family in Mexico, going on long walks in comfy shoes, and collecting souvenirs from his travels.

Jose loves being able to give back to his community as a fleet driver. When he's not on the road, you can find him spending quality time with his grandchildren or watching his favorite team - the Dodgers! 

Joel is a firm believer in serving those who need it most. For over 6 years Joel has dedicated himself to helping seniors and vulnerable neighbors alike, by making deliveries on behalf of the food bank. He is a huge fan of camping, car shows, and traveling to new places.
