What is a Mobile Pantry?

Second Harvest Food Bank uses a special truck to deliver at least 5,000 pounds of grocery product to any of our over 600 partner agencies. For two hours partner agency volunteers and staff distribute groceries directly from the truck to the people who need it most. Advantages: Efficient distribution to as many as 300 households in 2 hours Partner agencies keep all leftovers

What does an Agency have to do?
