Food for the Hungry—What is it?
Food for the Hungry is an annual community drive in Knox County, Ohio. The drive benefits two local agencies – Interchurch Social Services and The Salvation Army.
The community collects food and revenue for the Knox County branches of The Salvation Army and Interchurch Social Services. These agencies then use the donations to help Knox County families with necessities throughout the year.
What's different is that 100% of all donations to Food for the Hungry stay in Knox County.
One man over 20 years ago, began this tradition, and years later it has grown into a large endeavor by all community members.
This year, a record was set of $313,691 raised to benefit the families of Knox County, Ohio.
I had the pleasure of helping to document this day.
