Good News for Minnesota Food Shelves
It's the light at the end of the tunnel, Channel One has been waiting for, after being hit with bad news last Thursday."What had happened, is they said we had about 100 thousand pounds of food here in our warehouse and we were not going to be able to distribute at all to any of our food shelves," says Woodford.
So they decided to fight back. "Everybody kind of jumped into action, we were talking to lawyers, we were talking to legislators, anybody that would listen spreading the news that this was going to hurt people that would struggle for hunger, that put the pressure on and that made this really happen," she says.
Monday, a Minnesota judge reversed the stoppage of food shipments and immediately allowed organizations like Channel One to continue to feed people in need.
Currently, Channel One distributes ten thousand pounds of food every month across 13 counties in Southeastern Minnesota including Salvation Armies in Mower and Freeborn Counties.
"What we're anticipating now is those numbers growing even more, because of people who are being affected negatively by the shutdown," says Woodford.
And it doesn't take an expert to know this.
"The fact to give at this time when a lot of different people need it and this time of year they say it's down and so that's why we did," says Pam Lamb of Rochester.
Lamb is also a grandmother, so she knows how important it is that everyone is fed. "A lot of kids right now, during the summer, are off and they need that extra food right now."
"Now we're in a position again where we can reach out and help others in a time of need," says Woodford.
Channel One is always in need of donations and support. They have upcoming events such as their Grilling to Give Event hosted by Eastwood Bank next week or Rochester's Night Out Event in August.
