The Board of Supervisors just gave the food bank $500,000 in CARES Act money. It was supposed to buy 6 months worth of food. At this rate I’m thinking no chance it lasts that long. So much need in the county these days.

Yeah man I was surprised. No way it lasts that long without a ton of donations. They have had a big sign up thanking Denny Hamlin for donating so idk what that was

@FeedMoreInc is there a better process for this? Seems like even if there are enough supplies, people are going to be in line for 4 hours.

It’s because food pantry locations and pick up times are extremely limited and we have a HUGE volume of people who need help due to Covid job losses and increased costs of living during Covid. They also try on donations, pantries are strained all the time.

Hashtags don’t feed people. Food insecurity has existed to a significant degree under every administration regardless of party affiliation.

There must be a way to expand it to more locations. We can solve that part of the problem as communities.

Food banks rely on volunteers since donations are primarily used to buy, store and distribute food. Lots of volunteers disappeared with Covid-19. Food banks just don't have the ability to mobilize millions of pounds of food each month in too many locations. We are in crisis mode!
