Volunteers are needed to help distribute meals to 6,000 people this Saturday at Youngstown’s Covelli Centre.

The Mahoning County Veterans Service Commission, in partnership with Gleaner's Food Bank, will host a food distribution on Saturday 10/24/2020 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 at The Covelli Centre, 229 East Front Street Youngstown, Ohio.

This distribution will follow current Ohio COVID-19 public health directives regarding mandatory masks and social distancing for volunteers.

Patrons will remain in their vehicles and drive through the distribution line and are requested to wear masks as they pass through the food distribution area.

Organizers are looking for military veteran and non-veteran volunteers to assist in distributing food.  If you are a veteran, please wear something that signifies your military affiliation. 

Bring a mask and arrive no later than 9 AM if you wish to volunteer.  Contact Leo Connelly at (330) 261-5975 (voice or text) if you would like to volunteer.

The distribution is funded in part by CARES Act funds provided by the United States government to Mahoning County.
