Every day families in our communities are making hard choices: Food or gas to drive to work? Food or medicine? Food or my child’s doctor visit? Food or this month’s rent? The Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas works to eliminate hunger by distributing food to people in need through a network of non-profit agencies and programs.
This program comes to Walnut Ridge every 3 months to help with giving out commodities to Family’s
in need.
