Food Bank Supports Retired Police Officer
May is Older Americans Month and we are honored to serve many seniors in our community like Ken. For retired folks, living on a fixed income is hard in an economy with not-so-fixed costs constantly fluctuating, and often times with added medical bills on top of everything else. Last year, Ken found himself in a difficult place in his life when his wife became seriously ill. We’re so glad to be able to support folks like Ken with access to free, nutritious foods for their families.
