Woods Helps Operation Food Search Feed More This Thanksgiving

On Monday, Dave Thompson of Woods Basement Systems made a special delivery to the Manchester, Missouri Dierbergs to help Operation Food Search feed more people this Thanksgiving.  Invited to participate by FOX 2's Tim Ezell, Dave delivered a $2222.22 check from Woods Basement Systems to help Operation Food Search in their mission to "provide food and other basic necessities to individuals in need to help alleviate the burden of hunger and its consequences."

"For every dollar in donations, we're able to collect and distribute $20.00 worth of food," said Sunny Schaefer, Executive Director of Operation Food Search.  "This is going to go a long way."

Operation Food Search works tirelessly to fight hunger in more ways than one.  While they are a leader at collecting and distributing food throughout the bi-state region, Operation Food Search goes beyond just supplying agencies with free food.  With comprehensive nutrition education programs, an innovative weekend backpack program, and environmentally-friendly green initiatives, Operation Food Search fights hunger with knowledge, empowerment, and hope.
