"Seeing the need that is still here for the community, it actually touches my heart that the food bank and Channel 7 have done all that they've done to make sure my citizens get all the things that they need," Trotwood Mayor Mary McDonald said.
The food bank will continue to distribute food on Friday, 1 to 3 p.m., at 56 Armor Place. The food bank plans to continue distributing food throughout July.
