The Food Bank of the Albemarle will hold the “Sort-A-Rama” Food Packing event on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, from 4 – 7 pm at the food bank.
Teams of local businesses, organizations, and clubs will participate in a friendly food packing competition within a 45-minute time limit. All food will be distributed throughout the Food Bank’s 15-county service area of northeastern NC and the network of hunger relief partner agencies and mobile food pantries.
