- 1:41Speaker 2: Oh, Hunger Action Month. It's a national awareness day in
- 1:44Speaker 2: conjunction with Feeding America. And what we've really been asking
- 1:47Speaker 2: our community to do is to organize food drive. Right now,
- 1:51Speaker 2: our racks are empty in our warehouse because as soon
- 1:54Speaker 2: as the food that we receive comes in, it goes
- 1:56Speaker 2: right back out into our community. Since we start eleven counties,
- 1:59Speaker 2: we have partner food entries located in each county and
- 2:01Speaker 2: then we also hold multile distributions here at our facility.
- 2:04Speaker 2: So we've served fourteen million pounds. Wow, we contributed fourteen
- 2:10Speaker 2: million pounds this past the school year. It's just been
- 2:13Speaker 2: a real impact. We've seen a twenty percent increase in
- 2:16Speaker 2: neighbors that we've served this year within this last year,
- 2:19Speaker 2: and we anticipate that it's going to grow. So the
- 2:22Speaker 2: support that we get from our generous donors and our
- 2:24Speaker 2: community that are able to support us, we greatly appreciate it.
- 2:27Speaker 2: And you know, fund ranges by this or what goes
- 2:30Speaker 2: a long way, but even just collecting nonperishable food makes
- 2:33Speaker 2: it makes a big difference here at our community. Right.
- 2:35Speaker 1: So if people want to find out more details, they
- 2:37Speaker 1: can go to coastal Binfoodbank dot org or give them
- 2:40Speaker 1: a call. And of course the big event happening on
