Putting food on the table: Helping the Mid-Ohio Foodbank!

As we approach the Christmas season, I've been reminded that the need for food is greater than ever. Things have gotten tighter for many central Ohio families, and the Mid-Ohio Foodbank's work is needed more now than than ever. This year alone they have worked with over 200 area companies to deliver 4,517,754 meals.

But even with FOUR-POINT-FIVE-MILLION meals provided in 2009, it's still not enough. We're getting involved to further help the communities where we work.

Food requests at their network of pantries is up 15%

Imagine telling your kids you have no food.

The Basement Doctor team is hosting a food drive to benefit our fellow central Ohioans served by the Mid-Ohio Foodbank. We're utilizing the Home Improvement Center (614-522-0784) as a collection point for nonperishable food donations. Our food drive starts now and runs through December 24th.

We'll ensure the donations get the the Foodbank asap.

Your much needed donation will directly help families here in the mid-Ohio region. For nearly 30 years, the Mid-Ohio Foodbank has been working with grocers, food companies, Ohio farmers, the USDA, and community partners to obtain and distribute food to more than 500 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, after-school programs, and senior housing sites across central and eastern Ohio.
