To keep residents of Cameron and Calcasieu Parishes from going without a Christmas meal, Second Harvest is distributing holiday staples today thanks to a sizable donation from Chevron. Second Harvest Food Bank Spokesperson Natasha Curley said they will be giving away food at the Lake Charles Civic Center from 10 until noon.
“Anyone who is in need, anyone who wants a little food relief can please come on down. We’re hoping to be able to take care of many, many people in our community,” said Curley.
Second Harvest has already provided more than three million meals to the area since the hurricanes. Curley said Chevron’s additional donation of $50 thousand for today’s distribution shows their ongoing commitment to the area.
