Your Support Helps Feed Families in Richland Parish
Eva was the first in line at a Food Bank mobile pantry in Richland Parish. Eva told us that she was excited to receive some extra help with groceries, as she sometimes has trouble making ends meet.
She is the primary caretaker for her 8 grandchildren. Her grandchildren range in age from 2-year-old twins to 19 years old, and Eva spends a lot of time trying to make sure the kids have everything they need.
“In this time, it’s been truly hard,” said Eva. “It’s such a blessing to get this help. Thank you.”
