OhioHealth Van Wert and Partners to Host Community Food Distribution Event

OhioHealth Van Wert Hospital, in partnership with United Way of Van Wert County and the West Ohio Food Bank, will host a community food distribution on Tuesday, April 28. The event will take place from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Trinity Friends Church, located at 605 N. Franklin St., Van Wert.
 

The drive is designed to help ensure local residents have access to nutritious food. Volunteers from all three organizations will work together to distribute food and essential supplies to families in need.
 

The organizations host several drives throughout the year, with many events providing several tons of food to hundreds of families in just a few short hours.
 

“Supporting access to healthy food is an important part of improving health in our community,” said Paula Stabler, president of OhioHealth Van Wert Hospital. “It’s through collaboration like this that we can help put food on the table for local families who need it most.”
