ALAMEDA – A number of East Bay volunteers have been busy passing out donations to local food banks in recent weeks.
The volunteers collected more than 4,200 pounds of food and have spent the past few weeks distributing the items to nonprofit organizations such as the Alameda County Community Food Bank and The Tri-City Volunteers Food Bank in Fremont. Donations were also made to Burmese refugees in Oakland and to a number of families with children in local schools.
“We had a lot of middle and high school students take part this year, which was great,” said Konanganparambath.
