Clean Air Cab is hosting its 1st food drive through St. Mary’s Food bank Alliance.
St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance is the recipient of donated food which is dispersed across the state with over 500 partner agencies at roughly 750 sites such as domestic violence shelters, dining halls, schools, churches, children’s shelters, halfway houses, and senior centers.
DID YOU KNOW:
2 million Arizonans are considered working poor, living at or below the Federal Poverty guideline.
We are currently in the Thanksgiving season, and we have much to be thankful for. However, there are those who are less fortunate than us. While we sit at our tables, enjoying our Thanksgiving feast there will inevitably be someone who does not have food, who is going hungry, who is losing hope. The sad thing, is that the person who is going hungry is not seperated by hundreds of miles or an ocean… that someone is in our very community.
The current trend in an increased demand for Food Banks’ help across the nation have left many of them depleted and unable to meet all the requests for meals. We have been given the opportunity to help those individuals with their basic right, the right to live. There is nothing more disheartening then hearing that there are individuals starving in America: the land of opportunity and dreams.
Let us come together, as a community, and give thanks. Let us help our neighbors. Let us give others a reason for this season.
Clean Air Cab will be hosting a food drive from November 15th until we have filled our donation boxes and feed those who are hungry. Feel free to come to our main office and drop off whatever items you wish to donate.
