Food Basket giveaways Tues, Ocean View–Wed, Hilo–Thurs Waimea

The Hawaii Island Food Basket, the island’s only food bank, will give away food today to anybody who needs it Tuesday at Kahuku Park in Ocean View starting at 10.  They will also give away food Wednesday in Hilo at Afook Chinen Auditorium, starting at 10,  and Thursday at Waimea District Park, starting at 10.   Food Basket Executive Director Kristin Frost Albrecht asks those coming to have space in their trunk or back seat for the food.  She also says car pooling for more than one family is fine, to reduce traffic.  The food drop will go til noon or til the food supply is depleted.
