Food Banks Seeing More People In Need

Local area food banks are seeing an increase in those who need assistance and a decrease in the amount of support they are receiving. With the holiday season on the horizon food banks are preparing for a still greater increase in need. As the winter comes along and heating needs become a priority and gift giving expected with the holidays many families become strapped for cash and rely on food banks. The area food banks want to encourage those who can to continue giving so that those who are less fortunate can receive the aid they need.
