Member Duties : Feeding Medina County proposes to use the VISTA member to develop a survey/ questionnaire to be used to evaluate the transit services provided to the more than twenty food pantries we serve. Feeding Medina County provides pick-up and delivery of food orders placed at the Akron Canton Regional Foodbank by local food pantries. We also propose to use the VISTA member to collect pertinent data from a variety of resources such as the 2010 U.S. Census, a local community needs assessment spearheaded by United Way of Medina County, and hospital surveys.
