Food truck convoy helping those in need

May 6, 2020

A "Food Convoy" effort aims to help feed Tampa Bay's needy during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The effort, according to a Fox 13 report, is a collaborative program featuring nine traveling kitchens, organized by Feeding Tampa Bay, the Radius Church and Dru Rabin, who owns PB& Jelly Deli, that delivers 500 to 600 meals a day.

"We are going to take meals into neighborhoods where they need them most," Rabin told the news outlet. "So these are neighborhoods where people are transportation disadvantaged. They have children that would normally receive school meals but they have difficulty getting to school site locations to pick those meals up."
