DART’s annual “Stuff the Bus” Thanksgiving Food Drive brought in 13.1 tons or 26,201 pounds of food this year.
That topped last year’s total by about 3 tons, filling three 30-foot buses with non-perishable food.
The Food Bank of Delaware will now distribute the donated food through its Hunger Relief Partners to Delaware residents in need of food assistance.
The week-long food drive took place from November 11th to November 16th at various spots across the First State. This was the drive’s 22nd year.
