They will be distributing holiday food boxes, fresh produce, and frozen protein to 1,000 households at the Church of the Highlands on December 19.

Partnership for Holiday Food Provision

The Community Food Bank is collaborating with Piggly-Wiggly and Coca-Cola to ensure that families have enough food as they gather for the festive season. This partnership aims to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need. 1: The Community Food Bank's decision to distribute shelf-stable food items is a thoughtful one.

It shows their commitment to meeting the diverse needs of the community. 2: By not requiring identification or proof of income, the Food Bank is making sure that anyone in need of food assistance can receive it. This inclusive approach ensures that no one is left behind during the holiday season.
