Some food providers in the region are still struggling. Kelly Ptacek, with the Food Bank for the Heartland in Omaha, says they’re still in dire need of donations of canned and packaged food as well as fresh fruits and vegetables.
She says cash donations are also extremely useful.
With the early arrival of cold winter-like weather, Ptacek says hungry people across the region are relying even more on the agency for their daily meals.
