Uvalde Food Pantry hosting mobile food giveaway Saturday


The Uvalde Food Pantry, 211 S. Evans St., will be open Saturday from 9-11 a.m. for a mobile food distribution.

Food pantry representative Tru Hiatt said participants are asked to remain inside their vehicles at all times. Walk-up clients will not be accepted.

Vehicle lineup should begin on West Garden Street.

The Uvalde Food Pantry will also be open on April 17 and again on April 24 from 9-11 a.m. for distributions to Uvalde County residents.

Hiatt said if attendees receive federal food benefits, they will need to offer proof of the benefits.

Registration will be held at the time of food distribution, and anyone attending a drive-through distribution is asked to present photo identification.

Hiatt said volunteers are being sought to help with distribution, and those interested in volunteering may show up at the location approximately half an hour before the distribution.
