The Hall Township Food Pantry will host a distribution with food delivered from the River Bend Foodbank from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, Sept. 23, at 500 N. Terry St. in Spring Valley.

The Davenport, Iowa-based food bank delivers a semitrailer filled with food bought by the Hall Township Food Pantry to distribute to all people in need of groceries.

Participants will line up on First Street and then be directed to drive through the pantry barn, where trunks will be filled by volunteers. Trunks need to be cleaned in order to receive the food.

Those attending will be asked to sign in for Feeding America statistics.

Those with an abundance of food such as garden produce or who are willing to donate bottled water are asked to call 815-663-2085.
