It’s already November and the holidays are just around the corner. FOX10 news is joining hands with organizations in the community to make sure everyone has a warm Thanksgiving meal this year.
The annual food drive began at 7 a.m. and finished around 12 p.m. In that time, 21 hundred pounds of food were collected- that’s a whopping 1,750 meals.
“Partnerships such as this with Rouses and others in the community really are critical to our ability to reach those 1 in 6 individuals and 1 in 4 children right here where we live who are food insecure,” explained Cyndy Baggett with Feeding the Gulf Coast.
Michael Lewis says he loves the Mobile area as the people are always supportive of the Saints and their mission.
