Covenant of Grace Presbyterian Church in Reisterstown, Maryland hosted a food drive in conjuction with the "Touch a Truck" event held at the church on October 8. Members of the local community were invited to enjoy a day of fun, where kids were able to play on trucks and other vehicles, and were urged to bring non-perishable food items to donate to their neighbors in need.
The community responded by donating 100 pounds food - which will provide more than 80 meals to families struggling with food insecurity.
Easy Movers, an agent of Wheaton Van Lines, had a moving truck on-site for the event, generously provided boxes for the collection, and volunteered to deliver all of the donations to the Community Crisis Center.
There are more than 103,000 people, including 1 in 6 children, in Baltimore County who face hunger each day. Thank you to Covenant of Grace Presbyterian Church and Easy Movers for recognizing this problem and taking action.
Anyone can start a food drive. We can help!
