Food pantry does business today

Various food products will be given away this afternoon at Walhalla’s St. Luke Methodist Church.  The church pantry will operate today 4:30 to 5:30 pm.  The pantry is one of many across the state that earns the gratitude of the South Carolina Department of Public Health for its efforts to provide sustenance and fresh food to those in need.  A food access map shows there are food pantries in every county in the state.  National Food Bank Day last Friday raised awareness for the problem of hunger in the U-S.  Americans are encouraged to give to their local food bank.
