The Salvation Food Bank supports hundreds of people in the community, including three hundred children.

Because of the high demand, it’s low on food, and needs your help to restock it’s shelves.

Roy Bladen, the Ministry Director for the Salvation Army in Thompson, spoke to 102.9 CHTM about the event taking place Saturday.

He said that the food drive, called Feeding the Hunger, will take place at the Westwood Mall from 12:00pm to 5:00pm. They will be looking for donations of non-perishable food items.

Bladen added that the food bank serves over 60 families in our community, including over 300 children.
