Food banks all over the US are prepping for winter and the upcoming holidays, but with the COVID-19 pandemic, people working at food banks find themselves working harder than ever. Pastor Randy Burwell, of the Midland Food Bank says that COVID has really had an impact especially locally.
Burwell says that there hasn’t been as big of an impact from COVID as it was expected. Midland Food Bank has a great partnership with Central Illinois Foodbank.
Burwell says can donations are needed along with volunteers. If you want to help with volunteering call 217-237-2342. The food pantry is open on Wednesdays from 1-2:30 PM.
Pastor Randy Burwell appeared as a guest on the Newstalk WTIM Morning Show.
