Remember Urijah? He first toured our food bank in February 2023 and was determined to make a big impact through his food drive. "There are kids and families who go hungry every day, and we hope this food drive will help those in need. This way, they can focus on other things rather than worrying about hunger," said Urijah.?? In his first food drive, he collected 1,051 pounds of food, providing up to 875 meals for neighbors in need. This past week, in the inaugural Holy War Canned Food Drive, Notre Dame and Aquinas High Schools, led by Urijah, came together and collected 5,000 pounds of canned goods, equating to over 4,000 meals! ?? Thank you, Urijah, for leading the next generation toward a hunger-free Inland Empire! ?? #HungerActionMonth #FoodDrive #WeFeedtheIE #FARSB #Community
