Food drive helps feed hundreds of families

City of Seguin, Guadalupe Regional Medical Foundation team up with NB Food Bank By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera

(Seguin) -- Hundreds of volunteers came out this week to load the backs of pickup trucks and fill trunks of vehicles with pounds and pounds of food. One by one, vehicles made their way through the assigned lanes in the Seguin Coliseum parking lot picking up staples such as milk, bread, beans, fruit and meat. The event hailed as the “Mega Food Distribution Drive” was made possible thanks to a host of partnerships. Those coming together included the city of Seguin, Guadalupe Regional Medical Foundation and the New Braunfels Food Bank. Jumping at the opportunity to get the city involved was City Manager Steve Parker. Parker, who himself was loading vehicle’s with sacks of flour, says feeding families especially during times like these should be a priority for any community. "It is truly inspiring just the teamwork that's come together between all of the city departments, the county, everybody just working together, the turnout of volunteers. It just really makes you proud of this community. There's a lot of people in need right now. Our heart goes out to them so anything we can do to help them through this crisis and getting our lives back to normal and get people back in their jobs (and) everybody just trying to be safe. It's just an amazing turnout, teamwork. It's really a great event," said Parker. See FOOD DRIVE, page 2
