"Together we can make a difference, and we need your help," according to the police agency. "Since the pandemic, the need for food bank services has gone up by 40 to 50 percent. They are now serving 250,000 people per month." Those who prefer to donate online, can do so by following this link to the "virtual food drive." To date, $978 was raised toward the $1,500 goal.
