week donation window. - Last year, we collected over 15,000 pounds of food just in
the Toyota truck, lets beat that number this year! - 410,000 Utahns don’t know where their next meal is
coming from. 1 in 7 children might go to bed
hungry tonight. - Utah Food Bank can stretch each $1 donated into $8.71 worth of goods and services.
