How It Works
Each distribution offers assorted food items free of charge. Items are pre-boxed and ready to go. It’s first come, first served—one box or bag per household.
Simply drive through, stay in your vehicle, and open your trunk to receive your items. If your trunk doesn’t open, there’ll be a spot for self-loading.
The Bigger Picture
Food insecurity is a key issue in many communities. According to a recent report from Feeding America, around 42 million people face hunger in the U.S. annually. Distributions like these help alleviate some of that stress.
In recent years, community support has surged, showing how crucial these resources are. Social media reactions highlight gratitude. Many local families are spreading the word, encouraging friends and neighbors to attend.
Events that provide immediate support can greatly impact lives. As we come together, we can continue to build a stronger, more resilient community.
