In December 2024, Seva Food Bank hosted its Annual Banquet, an evening dedicated to celebrating the power of community, recognizing outstanding contributions, and expressing gratitude for the volunteers, donors, and partners who make its mission possible.

The event featured an inspiring keynote speech by Aiden Parkins, titled "Gratitude at the Gates." Parkins spoke about the transformative role of gratitude in overcoming challenges and fostering resilience, a message that deeply resonated with the audience.

The banquet also served as an award ceremony, where Seva Food Bank honored individuals and organizations who demonstrated exceptional commitment to serving the community. Volunteers, donors, and local leaders were recognized for their dedication to fighting food insecurity and supporting Seva’s initiatives throughout the year.
