The Foodbank Inc. will be giving out food today for Greene County residents at Wright State University’s Nutter Center.

The giveaway will be from 10 a.m. to noon in Lot 8 of the Nutter Center, 3640 Colonel Glenn Highway in Fairborn. Residents will receive proteins, grains, fresh produce and other products.

People should not arrive before 9 a.m. for safety reasons and food preparation. In addition, it is recommended to make sure there is plenty of space in the backseat or trunk of vehicles, the Foodbank stated in a release.

The giveaway is sponsored by CareSource, which will help pass out food. A mobile clinic by Premier Health will be on site offering optional free health services to interested parties.

“We are looking forward to having another successful event during challenging times,” Michelle L. Riley, CEO of The Foodbank, said. “A special thanks to Wright State University and CareSource for making this distribution possible, as well as Premier Health for bringing their services to the community free of charge.”

Those attending should enter the Nutter Center parking lot via Colonel Glenn Highway and North Fairfield Road and follow directed lanes to Lot 8.
