Countywide food drive wrapping up next week

Most big food drives happen around Thanksgiving and Christmas time, but the people who need that food are hungry year round. That’s why the Medical Reserve Corps of La Salle County hopes a food drive this summer will be just as big as the ones during the holidays.

The county-wide food drive continues through next Monday. All food collected will be distributed across La Salle county based on population served. Every food pantry will get donations.
