Help Us Welcome Jeff, Our New Executive Kitchen Assistant!

Jeff (he/him) is a retired Information Technology Consultant who has always had a passion for preparing nutritious good tasting food for his friends and family. He was first introduced to Pastor Anna and FedUp Ministries' mission when it first started in 2021. His decision to volunteer on the food truck and in the kitchen was immediate because of his support for our mission.

He has seen how the FedUp organization has grown and wanted to make a full commitment to its future growth and development making a difference in our local community. Jeff says, "I’m truly honored and humbled for the opportunity to make a positive impact for our local friends in need alongside Pastor Anna and the entire FedUp Team.”

Jeff is also a US Air Force Veteran that has been recognized several times for his dedicated service. Some of his hobbies include playing golf, fishing and racquetball when time permits.

We're Re-Introducing Rosemary as a Paid On-Call Kitchen Staff Member!

Hi! My name is Rosemary (she/her). I have been working with FedUp Ministries since August 2021. I was introduced to FedUp by Lord of Light-Lutheran Campus Ministry and for the past year, I have been a volunteer for the organization. As a Student Manager at the University of Michigan’s dining halls, I have been able to bring my acquired kitchen skills to the table. It is a privilege to extend upon those skills as I work alongside the team. And it is also a blessing to be able to help those in my community as we help feed it in my favorite food truck! In my spare time, I like to exercise, read, and watch Barbie Life in the Dream House.

Help Us Welcome Kim, Our Third MSW Intern!

Hi! My name is Kimberly Sells (she/her) and I am a University of Michigan MSW intern with FedUp Ministries. I am currently pursuing my Masters in Social Work with a pathway in Management and Leadership, and plan on graduating in June 2023. I am originally from Oakland County, Michigan but I have spent the past 4 years living in Ann Arbor. I really enjoy the outdoors, whether it be riding my bike, camping, or hiking, and I am a big Michigan football fan, Go Blue! I am excited to be a part of the team so I can build skills that will make me an effective social worker and create meaningful change in our community.
