Food for the Hungry of Knox County to hold pop up food distribution

Food For The Hungry, Knox County Foundation, Interchurch Social Services, and Knox County community partners are organizing a “pop-up” food distribution to support our neighbors facing food insecurity. All Knox County families who are at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level are invited to receive a box of food on Saturday, November 1st, from 10:00am-12:00pm at Habitat for Humanity (405 W. Chestnut Street, Mount Vernon). For questions on eligibility, please contact Carolyn Fergus of Interchurch Social Services at (740-397-4825).

If you or your organization would like to volunteer to help organize and distribute food on November 1st, 8am – 1pm, please email Knox County Foundation’s Lisa Loyd at lisa@knoxcf.org with your availability. Whether you can give a full morning or just an hour, your help makes a real difference.
