The City of Tennille, the Tennille Downtown Development Authority, and the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in collaboration with Life Beyond Water Global Outreach and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will provide another drive-thru food giveaway for the community on Saturday, May 15.
According to Tennille Mayor Eartha Cummings, boxes will be filled with essential food items to distribute beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning. The giveaway will conclude at noon.
Food distribution is performed on a first come, first served basis while supplies last.
Tennille Mayor Cummings explained that this is the third time these particular agencies have partnered to provide food in the community. The previous food giveaways took place in March and April of this year.
“We always want to establish working partnerships with various agencies to be able to serve our community,” said Mayor Cummings, adding, “This is beneficial for the entire community.”
The food giveaway will take place at New Birth Christian Ministries located at 409 Zeta Street in Tennille.
To ensure the health and safety of the volunteers and the community, everyone attending must adhere to the COVID-19 CDC guidelines. When collecting a box of food, please remain in your vehicle, and have the trunk open for the volunteers to load the box.
