How Food Banks Help Our Community
Food banks collect food from restaurants, shops, agriculturists, etc. and distribute it to hunger-relief charities. They also stock pile food that can be stored for long periods of time without going bad. This is distributed in times of emergencies such as a national disaster.
How Can You Help?
If you are willing to donate food, time or money, you are welcome to join at any of the above locations. The more people who contribute, the faster we can eradicate World Hunger. Like they say, the more the merrier!
