Thanks to a program through the USDA, the Gary Housing Authority’s (GHA) EnVision Center and FAITH Community Development Center have teamed up to spearhead the COVID-19 Food Relief Initiative.
Gary residents are invited to drive up to 656 Carolina St. on June 4th and have a 50-lb box of food (including meat, dairy and produce items) loaded in their trunks while supplies last.
(Please do not arrive prior to 11:30 a.m.) The Gary Housing Authority with distribute food boxes to its residents.
The first 100 Gary residents age 60 and older who are non-GHA residents are asked to call the Urban League of NWI at 219-887-9621 to arrange deliver of their food box.
“Thanks to the City of Gary, the Gary Housing Authority, the Gary Community School Corporation, the Urban League of NWI, the Legacy Foundation, the NAACP Gary Branch, McFarling Foods, countless churches, fraternities, sororities, non-profit organizations, community agencies and volunteers, we will be able to feed hundreds of Gary families over the next month.”
