The Food Bank is Again Seeing an Increase in its Numbers.

 

At their 24th annual meeting yesterday the Lord’s Bounty Food Bank Distribution Chair Dennis Hydamaka reported an increase in food distribution during the past year.  The number of client files increased from 178 to 221. They experienced a 12 percent increase in hampers distributed and a 10 percent increase in the number of people fed.  Hydamaka says the previous year they had more singles and fewer families but the families are now coming back.  He says their food supply is in pretty good shape with another food drive by Hapnot Collegiate and Northland Ford in progress,

             

Hydamaka added they took in just under 21 thousand dollars in donations down by seven thousand from the previous year resulting in their cutting back in the variety of food being purchase.

             

The Food Bank is looking for at least one new board member and volunteers noting it does not require a large time commitment.  If interested contact the Food Bank at 687-7262.
