BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — 23ABC News has been a part of the fight against food insecurity for years. Once again, we have partnered with the Community Action Partnership of Kern (CAPK) Food Bank to support the community's seniors, who are especially vulnerable to the issue.
We are inviting county residents to join us in the fight against hunger by donating canned items or any non-perishable foods. We are accepting donations at several locations around the county through Thurs, March 23. Those donations go directly will to Kern County seniors.
On the final day of the 23ABC Senior Food Drive, donors can stop by our station from 6 a.m. until 7:30 p.m. to drop off donations as well. We are located at 321 21st Street in Downtown Bakersfield.
Drop-off locations for the food drive include multiple Taco Bell and Subway locations, as well as Countryside Convenience stores and gas stations. Monetary donations can be made to CAPK.
