Food Bank Open House
The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank is celebrating its third anniversary of operation with an Open House on Saturday, April 20 from 11 a. m. until 2 p.m.
Open Houses will be held at each of three Food Bank locations: the main office and warehouse at 818 Richmond Road in Staunton; the Lord Fairfax branch at 712 N. Kent Street, Winchester; and the Thomas Jefferson branch on Route 250 Bypass in the Mclntire School Building, Charlottesville.
The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank is a non-profit agency serving 18 counties and seven cities in the Shenandoah Valley and surrounding areas. The Food Bank collects surplus, edible food, which would otherwise be wasted, from a variety of sources, and distributes this food to non-profit agencies that serve the needy.
The Open House has been planned to honor all those who have given vital support to the Food Bank, and who have donated generous gifts such as food, equipment, time and money.
