Four local agencies have teamed up to conduct a “Fill the Truck” event Tuesday, May 21 in the Reese & Ray’s IGA parking lot and Wednesday, May 22 at the Reynolds/Shopko parking lot from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day. The Richland County Food Bank, the Salvation Army, ROI, Inc. and Richland County Coalition Against Domestic Violence are all experiencing increased demands on their services due to the growth in our community. Each organization has provided an essential items list. These are items they could and do use on a daily basis. Pick up a list from the volunteers at the big yellow truck and help “Fill The Truck”.
