The West Ohio Food Bank's "Senior Food Box" program does its first "on the road" packing event today at the Lima Rotary Club meeting. The food bank brought everything they needed to pack two pallets of boxes. Rotarians were quick to get in line and fill the boxes with all types of commodities that will provide meals for a couple of weeks for a senior citizen.

"If we need to go to where the volunteers are like a Rotary event or any other service club we would definitely consider that just to get the work done," said Tommie Harner, CEO of West Ohio Food Bank.

Harner says they need 30 pallets of senior boxes a month for the 11 counties that they serve. If you are interested in helping, you can contact the West Ohio Food Bank at 419-222-7946.
