Local food banks need your help

a pair of hands reaches into a box of produce and canned goods.

There is an increased need in food assistance as the economic impacts of the pandemic begins to unravel. The outbreak is placing an immense strain on food banks trying to meet a growing demand with fewer resources. Food banks are on the front lines supporting people affected by the pandemic in addition to those already in need. Prolonged quarantine measures are also creating a crisis for families who rely on free or reduced-fare school meals for their children.

Our community is relying on all of us. Please consider reaching out to your local food bank and finding out how you can help. A healthy community is a strong community.
