Operation Food Search Collects over 64,000 Food Items During Shop Out Hunger Event
Operation Food Search (OFS), a non-profit hunger relief organization, hosted its annual Shop Out Hunger Day on August 14 with partners Schnucks, Dierbergs, and Straub’s markets. Together, they collected 64,885 food items that will go toward addressing critical community needs. The event also raised $13,000 in monetary donations.
