We’re so pleased to welcome Russell Hoffman to our team as Inventory Coordinator. In this role, Russell is responsible for accepting, organizing, and tracking food donations. He also works with our Head Chef to ensure all food is utilized.

Russell was born and raised in northern New Jersey. He moved to Cincinnati in January when his girlfriend joined the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra! They live downtown, which makes his commute in the early morning a bit easier. Outside of work, he is also a musician. He trained as an oboist at Juilliard, and currently performs with groups in the area and has a private teaching studio.

Russell was attracted to Our Daily Bread because he grew up volunteering at his local soup kitchen with his family and got to see how these organizations can have a profound impact on so many people. He hopes that his work with Our Daily Bread helps strengthen our ability to serve the community, and that we collectively work towards a future when we are no longer needed!
