D. Scott Walker, a local Johnson & Johnson employee, has been making good use of his time during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. He’s been working with the Orange County Rescue Mission for over six years, donating 1,560 hours of his time to the cause to date.
Walker visits local restaurant franchises/locations to “rescue” food and deliver it to the Orange County Rescue mission. He has been able to continue his food rescues and deliveries even during the COVID-19 pandemic – as the need remains and is even more essential during this time, as more people lose their jobs and face resource constraints as a result.
While daily deliveries have scaled back during COVID and he’s taking extra safety precautions, Scott has still been able to continue this important work. That said, total donations have been down recently, with restaurants either closing or scaling back operations so there is less food waste to “rescue.”
