The Voice of Seguin Today
Food distribution event set for Thursday Sign up for food, sign up to volunteer for event at Coliseum By Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- Food insecurity was a major issue in 2020, largely because there were so many people who lost jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The year 2021 is off to a similar start when it comes to the pandemic, but fortunately there is again help on the way for those who are hungry. The New Braunfels Food Bank has been teaming up with other local organizations, like the city of Seguin and Guadalupe Regional Medical Center (GRMC) to host what have been called Mega Food Distribution events. The first distribution day of 2021 is slated for this Thursday in the parking lot outside of the Seguin Coliseum. Elaine Bennett, CEO of the Guadalupe Regional Medical Foundation at GRMC, says they are again teaming up with the city and the food bank to host the event. “It does not matter your income or what situation you are in. It’s just whoever needs food at this time. It’s a Mega Food Distribution (event) and it’s at the Coliseum,” said Bennett. See FOOD, Page 3
