Holly has lived, worked, and raised her family in Kootenai County for over 20 years. She is a graduate of Lewis Clark State College with a Bachelor’s in Social Work and an LSW license. The food bank benefited from Holly’s volunteer services for 6 months before she joined the food bank team as Market Coordinator. Holly believes strongly in the mission of the Post Falls Food Bank, and in helping her neighbors in Kootenai County. Part of Holly’s job is overseeing the volunteers who help out in the market for which Holly is so grateful. “The volunteers are amazing and we wouldn’t be here without them and their dedication.”

A certified welder by trade, he has blessed the food bank since he first walked through the doors. Matt loves knowing he’s doing something that benefits the community and working with our great volunteers. He’s kind of a big deal!
Jason Hall
Jason Hall is our driver! Originally coming from the San Francisco Bay Area (like so many of the other transplants up here!), Jason moved to North Idaho in 2019 for a change of scenery and pace. After kicking around in tech support and customer service, he wanted something a little more meaningful, which brought him to the Post Falls Food Bank! In his spare time, Jason works in the live audio industry, and in his even sparer time, he enjoys hiking and swimming.
