Kelly Center & Jason’s Deli’s Food Drive To Help Feed El Paso
One sobering fact about El Paso is the amount of people who don't have food to eat. It's such a sad thought to think about. We have many organizations to help combat that; thanks to the efforts of The El Pasoans Fighting Hunger Food Bank & this organization: the Kelly Center for Hunger Relief.
Their headquarters are located at 915 N Florence St & they have a total of 6 different programs to help El Pasoans have food, clothes, & basic resources that they need to survive.
These programs include the
KTSM 9 news even did a story about the Community Closet program being start last month.
Throughout the month of October they have a few events where people can donate food & win prizes for their donations.
Their Fresh Start Food Drive is already underway until November 10th. People are encouraged to donate food at any of the 3 Jason's Delis locations in El Paso during the hours that the stores are open.
You can see even more details on ToDoElPaso.
