Staff Spotlight – Sheila Elwell – Corporate And Community Relations Coordinator
Before working at The Idaho Foodbank, what was the most unusual or interesting job you’ve ever had?
I owned a staging company for many years called Lakeland Design. I furnished and accessorized several homes a week for local builders and realtors in Washington.
What is your WHY, why do you work at The Idaho Foodbank?
Seeing and hearing about the direct impact we are having on our neighbors struggling with food insecurity gives me the resolution to continue seeking the support of local organizations and making those financial asks.
My favorite way to spend the day is
Anything outdoors. Hiking, biking, paddle boarding, kayaking, beach volleyball, or simply sitting by the pool.
What lesson are you most grateful for learning?
It’s not all about you, in fact it’s almost never about you.

What is on your bucket list?
A trip to Nashville and Greece. In that order.
