NVOAD - Situation Report 6/16/10

Feeding America has been active in Louisiana, Alabama, and the Panhandle of Florida, opening their food banks and working with the State VOADs. They have formed a working group at their National Office, which will meet for the first time this Friday, to get a better handle on the situation along the Gulf Coast. This working group is assessing the situation and considering the future need for full involvement of their organization, and will provide support current with the coastal food banks.

* The Northwest Louisiana Food Bank also will be responding to food, water
and perishable item needs and will need volunteers for their response
effort. Call Coleman Robison 675-2400, Ext. 115 to volunteer as needed with
the Food Bank.

-------------
The Food Bank provides more food for our community when essential professional services and products are donated. We have an on-going need for warehouse lighting, warehouse pallet racking and shelving, vehicle services, and warehouse/office furniture and equipment.

The Food Bank can arrange volunteers and trucks to tear down and pickup warehouse racking and shelving that you would like to donate. Please call us at (318) 675-2400. Every donation, large or small, is appreciated.

------------------------------
We have over 86 member agencies in our 7-parish region. You may have heard of some of them. Please use this list* to refer our neighbors in need to a pantry near them or have them contact us at (318) 675-2400 for further assistance in locating temporary food assistance.
