[quote=Anonymous]Stay the course, OP. I wonder if we know each other and or are neighbors. I also do food outreach work (almost 20 years now) and constantly hear criticisms that I need to vet clients better: “she drives a nice car” or “there’s no reason he can’t get a job” or most recently, “I can’t believe there’s even a need here in [zip code].” Well, there is. Always have and always will be. Mean, unhelpful people will be your biggest critics and the loudest voices you’ll hear. Do your best to cultivate kindness and keep volunteering. All of this negativity has empowered me to be even kinder, even more upbeat especially with my clients. I literally perform a good deed a day and it’s so uplifting. I recently shut down a very negative and politically charged text thread with my co volunteers - respectfully asked them to take this discussion offline as it was irrelevant to our mission - and they did.
