MARQUETTE, MI-- Feeding America West Michigan is bringing food trucks to the U.P. over the next month.
At each Mobile Pantry event, 15,000 pounds of food will be distributed to community members in need. Each family will receive a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products and baked goods.
Participants do not need to show ID or proof of income to get food, but they will have to provide basic contact information and affirm their need for food.
All Mobile Pantries are providing drive-thru service. Attendees should ensure there is space in the back of their vehicle for volunteers to load food.
