Krista Lisser, Public Relations Manager for the Central Illinois Food Bank was a guest on the WTIM morning show Wednesday morning. Lisser talked about how although there are more people suffering from hunger in higher populated areas, it’s the rural towns where the Food Bank sees higher percentages of people suffering from hunger.

Lisser talked about how the Central Illinois Food Bank does distribute food to the needy directly, but the majority of the food is directed to local pantries, who then distribute the food to the needy.
