Feeding Southwest Virginia fights food insecurity with summer programs
Updated: May. 26, 2023 at 3:00 PM EDT
ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) - Feeding Southwest Virginia Food Bank is keeping bellies full this summer through its children’s summer feeding programs.
The food bank serves 26 counties and 9 cities throughout Southwest Virginia, and summer months are always a concern, since children are no longer receiving meals through their schools, President and CEO Pamela Irvine said.
Irvine joined Here @ Home to talk about the feeding opportunities available and how the community can help the mission to reduce hunger across the region.
