Program/Service Notes:
The Foodbank's Foodmobile distributes
truck-loads of various food products such as fresh produce, breads, cereals, and
assorted nutritional food items. The particular partner agency of the Foodbank which
sponsors the Foodmobile distributes the food products to poverty eligible people in
the service area. The agency set up tables, and volunteers unload the food products
for distribution typically during a two-hour period. The partner agency pays
approximately 4 cents per pound of food, or $200, for the truck load. Or, on
occasion a donor - individual, church or organization - will gift specific funds to
the Foodbank to sponsor the Foodmobile for a given service area. The Foodbank
gratefully accepts gift support in the form of food and food products, property
assets, planned gifts and cash donations, as well as gifts of community volunteer
service.
