Folks getting food from the Wallace Food Bank get to shop from items stocked by the community, or they can take pre-bundled bags of a variety of food items. While they're waiting for a turn to shop, they're able to get a hot meal.
WALLACE — The turnout for the Wallace Food Bank has kept steady since the dramatic increase it experienced in this past fall.
The food bank's president, Michael Hoffman said the group may be making a move in the near future if a good fit for the agency is found.
“It will take some time, but prayerfully optimistic that we’ll find a location that will be a win-win for the best interest of our community, volunteers, individuals and families,” Hoffman said.
