Gila Community Food Bank is celebrating the opening of its Miami branch this Saturday. It’s on Adonis Street, just behind the Hi Tyme appliance store.
The new site opened April 1 after United Food Bank asked the Gila Community Food Bank to take over the distribution of food supplied by the USDA, WHEAT, Feed America and other organizations that provide food to keep people from going hungry.
Gila Community Food Bank is a volunteer organization that offers several services, including a Clothing Bank, Help Baby program, Help Yourself co-op food boxes and a 24 hour information and referral phone line. They are also in charge of dispensing food from a produce truck that comes each month from the United Food Bank in Mesa.
The Miami branch Grand Opening is this Saturday from 10:am until noon.
