The Foodbank is hosting a drive-thru food distribution this afternoon for North Dayton and surrounding area residents in Harrison Twp.

The food giveaway is from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Dixie Twin Drive-In at 6201 N. Dixie Drive.

As a sponsor for the food distribution event, CareSource will be volunteering to help pass out food, which will include “fresh produce, proteins, grains and other products,” according to a release from The Foodbank.

“The North Dayton area was heavily impacted by the 2019 Memorial Day tornadoes and continues to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic,” Michelle L. Riley, CEO of The Foodbank, said. “We are grateful to be partnering with CareSource to address the higher rate of food insecurity in the North Dayton area, and ultimately offer families much needed support.”

Cornish hens will be given out instead of turkeys due to recent inflation.

Residents should not arrive before noon for safety and food preparation purposes.

The event is part of a series of food distributions to support local communities with a high concentration of food insecurity, according to a press release. They are in addition to the Foodbank’s Mobile Pantry program, which gives out food each month in Montgomery, Greene and Preble counties.

Anyone with questions should call The Foodbank at 937-461-0265.
