The food bank says they do not have not enough food to supply the need across the area. John Norris, from St. Anne Catholic Church, says he has seen a increase in need in his Tomball neighborhood. “There is a great deal of emotional trauma, especially from those who have come to us looking for help who have had their trees into their homes,” Norris said when asked about conditions in the north and west side of Houston. The Houston Food Bank helps provide about 80 percent of the food served in meals Norris distributes trough his pantry program. He is urging people to support the Red Barrel program by donating a bag of groceries when shopping in participating store. To volunteer with the Houston Food Bank you can call 713-223-3700. ============================== Source: http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=resources/lifestyle_community/community&id=6397023 9/18/08: Individuals and businesses can donate food, water and essential items by dropping them off at their facility.
