ROSEBURG, Ore. – Feeding Umpqua Food Bank received a huge delivery from Sherm’s Thunderbird Market Thursday.
The grocery store donated 30,000 pounds of food to the organization. The food was brought to the food bank in a semi-truck from their home base in Medford.
Owner Steven Olsrud escorted the truck to Roseburg. He told KEZI 9 News that this donation is needed now more than ever as the food bank continues to address food insecurities caused by the pandemic and the 2020 wildfires.
“This has probably been the worst year of all for southern Oregon,” said Olsrud. “There is so much need out there.”
