SAN ANGELO – The Concho Valley Regional Food Bank will be hosting a community-wide mega food distribution on Saturday, March 26 from 10:00 a.m. – noon in the parking lot of Angelo State University’s Foster Field, located at 1600 University.
The new venue offers a more centrally located distribution, plus it will be easier for any ASU students needing food to attend the event. These community-wide mega food distributions were not taking place prior to the onset of COVID-19, once the negative impact COVID was having on people’s livelihoods became apparent, the CVRFB instituted the quarterly food giveaways.
In addition, food distributions are held throughout the year in the other counties of the food bank’s service area, only on a smaller scale.
There will be provisions to serve between 800-1000 households at the distribution. A maximum of two households per vehicle will be allowed and on-site registration is required to receive the food. The food is being provided by the San Antonio Food Bank and the CVRFB.
The CVRFB is a 501(C)(3) non-profit corporation. As an affiliate of the San Antonio Food Bank and members of both Feeding America and Feeding Texas, the Concho Valley Regional Food Bank is a community-based organization with the resources of a national campaign, currently working with many volunteers per year, with annual volunteer hours totaling over 3,000 and an outreach that extends through 13 counties in West Texas.
