OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. – Dozens of vehicles lined up early Thursday outside the Osceola County YMCA as food and essentials were distributed to families in need.
The effort was organized by YMCA Central Florida to help people who are experiencing challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Chad Garmon, who is YMCA's vice president of community involvement, said the food distribution marks the third straight week of events in the Central Florida area. "Really, everyone is need right now.
There's so many families who are without work. This is just a way for us to serve our neighbors," he said. Two hundred packages of meals, including fresh fruits and vegetables, were distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis from 10 a.m.
