Health and Nutrition Fairs: In an effort to offer our clients the services of both the Food Bank and those of other agencies that provide nutrition and health services, we have begun a quarterly Health and Nutrition Fair. Our first fairs draw up to 250 families to 15 service providers - and all were happy with the information that so many needy families found.
