Military connected families in the Killeen and Fort Hood area received Christmas meals from the Killeen Food Care Center on Tuesday.
The food care center in partnership with the Military Family Advisory Network (MFAN) provided the food to 500 families that drove through the food care center parking lot and had the meals loaded into their vehicles by volunteers.
MFAN is a virtual group of military spouses that go around the country locating places where food insecurity exists within the military population and trying to fix that problem.
Erin Kahn, the response manager for MFAN, spoke about the decision to bring food to Killeen and the Fort Hood population.
