All South Lake Tahoe members of the Hunger Response Network will be meeting on Wednesday to discuss the results a hunger study conducted in the area last spring.
The El Dorado County Food Bank will be hosting the October 22 meeting at St. Theresa's Bread & Broth at 9:30 a.m. They will discuss the results of the South Lake Tahoe focused Hunger Study to truly understand the community’s needs and the best ways to allocate the Food Bank’s resources in Tahoe based on these results.
Based on the results of this Hunger Study, the Food Bank and collaborating hunger response agencies will determine the best way to mobilize the Food Bank’s resources which include partnerships with California Emergency Food Assistance Program, FoodLink, Feeding America, California Association of Food Banks, USDA, local grocers and others to increase food distributions to its partner agencies throughout South Lake Tahoe.
