CLEVELAND — The Greater Cleveland Food Bank is hosting another drive-thru distribution on Thurs., May 14 from 2-5 p.m., rain or shine, at the Muni Lot.
The Food Bank plans to distribute fresh produce and shelf-stable products.
Members from the Cleveland Police Department, the Ohio Military Reserve and Ohio National Guard will help control traffic, and the Ohio State Highway Patrol will help with client check-in.
Since the Food Bank started the food distributions, more than 20,000 families have been served weekly.
The same guidelines are in place for anyone who plans to attend.
All individuals and families must register at www.WeFeedCLE.org. Once registered, a number will be given, which should be brought at check-in. Anyone who needs help registering can call 216-738-2067.
Anyone attending the distribution must follow these guidelines:
