Join us on Friday, November 21st, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Wal-Mart on Highland for Fill the Food Bank, the biggest food drive of the year for the Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas.

We’re accepting donations of non-perishable food and cash to help feed families in need. Just one dollar provides 3.5 meals. And if you can’t make it to the main location, no problem—drop by any of the satellite locations. Click here to see all the details and all the drop-off locations. Text NEAFOOD to 44321 to donate now!

Together, we can make sure no family has to choose between food and other basic needs. Every donation counts.

“Fill the Food Bank” is proudly sponsored by the Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas, KAIT, and the Jonesboro Media Group. Let’s make a difference—one meal at a time.
