REMEMBER YOUR LOCAL FOOD BANK
If you are in need, there are local food banks in our region that may be able to help.
If you are able to give, consider contacting your local food bank to see how they would like to receive donations (cash donations or product donations). Different food banks may have different protocols in place at this time. Your local grocery stores may also be taking food bank donations.
Please call your local food bank for more details as their procedures may be different right now.
