Rainbow Girls volunteer their weekend at the Regional Food Bank

On Saturday, 229 Rainbow Girls volunteered at the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma.

The Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma, a member of the Feeding America network of Food Banks, is the largest hunger-relief charity in the state – providing enough food to feed more than 136,000 hungry Oklahomans every week, 37 percent of which are children. Oklahoma consisently ranks among the hungriest states in the nation. One in four children and one in six adults has inconsistent access to healthy food.

With a team effort, the group worked 22,850 pounds and prepared 19,042 meals to be provided.

See all the photos.

In fiscal year 2017, the Regional Food Bank distributed 52 million pounds of food through a network of 1,300 community-based partner agencies, charitable feeding programs and schools throughout 53 central and western Oklahoma counties.
