Meals – which will be delivered – must be requested by 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 22.
Those interested should contact their respective law enforcement agency:

The Feed the Needy Program has grown from feeding a few people to providing over 1,000 meals for those in need and is only possible through generous donations and local volunteers. They have kept this program going for 34 years.
