River Valley Regional Food Bank Food banks rely heavily on volunteers to keep their doors open and operations running. Unfortunately, RVRFB has not been able to utilize volunteers due to COVID but that has not stopped them or slowed them down. They are still supplying food to thousands of hungry people in our community. Thanks to the food bank we are able to supply backpack bags to children at Carnall and Cavanaugh Elementary Schools at little or no cost to us. If you would like to support the food bank there are a couple ways to do so. Monetary donations are always welcome. You can mail or drop off your donation to 1617 South Zero St., Fort Smith 72901 or donate online at www.rvrfoodbank.org/donate. You can also become a Social Media Ambassador by Following the food bank on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and share the food bank’s posts and stories. Follow the food bank on Facebook at RVRFoodBank.
