Bare shelves at Village of Hope Niagara food bank in Lincoln
Bare shelves at Village of Hope Niagara food bank in Lincoln
Officials say donations have not been keeping up with the increased demand.
There’s a lot of condiments, some canned tuna and a few cans of beans, but not much else at the Village of Hope Niagara food bank in Lincoln. “It’s down to bare,” chief executive officer Cheryl Keddy-Scott said as she surveyed the food bank’s shelves. “It’s the lowest I’ve ever seen it. Unfortunately, (our clients) go home with less.” Keddy-Scott said the South Service Road food bank is currently feeding about 425 Lincoln households each month, up from about 290 households a year ago.
