The Regional Food Bank fights hunger across central and western Oklahoma, working to ensure that children, seniors, and families who struggle to access nutritious food have what they need.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Our associates arrived ready to work and spread out across the facility. Teams packed food boxes, sorted and relabeled canned goods, prepared meals and snacks for children, and packaged spices for meal preparation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The day’s biggest accomplishment came through the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), which provides monthly food boxes to low-income seniors ages 60 and older. Our team completed 55 pallets holding 2,676 food boxes, totaling 86,266 pounds of food. The Food Bank typically averages about 30 pallets a day, which means our associates nearly doubled that output in a single day, helping provide 71,888 meals to seniors in need.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The impact didn’t stop there. Elsewhere in the facility, teams sorted and corrected labels on 8,100 pounds of canned goods, prepared more than 1,200 snacks for children’s programs, and packaged 420 bags of spices. By the end of the day, the Regional Food Bank reported that our associates had helped provide the equivalent of 80,562 meals, plus those 420 bags of spices.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Beyond the numbers, every box packed and every snack prepared represents a neighbor who will feel the difference, from a senior receiving a monthly food box to a child enjoying a healthy snack outside of school.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Thank you to the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma for welcoming our team, and to every Oklahoma City associate for an incredible day of service.
